Starting School
Starting school is
an exciting time for families and children as our youngest
citizens take early steps on their journey through education
and on to the rest of their lives.
South Australia
will have the same first day of school for all children.
This will be the first day of term one. Having the same
first day of school means that every child is guaranteed
four terms of reception before they go on to the rest of
their primary schooling.
It will also mean
a more stable environment for children with fewer changes to
classes throughout the year.
The start date will be the first day of Term 1.
- If your child turns five before 1 May, they will start school on the first day of term one in that year.
- If your child turns five on or after 1 May, they will start school on the first day of term one the following year.
The minimum age for starting school is four years and eight months.
