Pre-Kindy

Welcome to our school, where we believe that learning should be an exciting and fulfilling journey for every student.

At Port Macquarie Adventist School (PMAS), we understand that the transition from home to school can be challenging for young children. That’s why we offer a Pre-Kindy program specifically designed to help children 4 years and older prepare for their formal educational journey. This program is perfect for children who have previously attended preschool, daycare, or have been cared for at home.

Our Pre-Kindy program is centred around experiential and play-based learning, making the transition to school fun, engaging and smooth. Students are guided through a variety of stimulating indoor and outdoor activities that focus on an introduction to phonological awareness, simple numeracy skills and interest-based projects. They will have the opportunity to explore, create, and collaborate with their peers, while also discussing interesting topics and solving challenges. As a Christian school, our Pre-Kindy program also instils Christian morals and values, which will shape character throughout school and beyond.

We believe that parents play a vital role in the education and development of their children. That’s why we work closely with families to ensure that each child’s mental, emotional, physical, social, and spiritual growth is fostered in harmony with the values and beliefs of the family. Together, we can give your child the best possible start to their educational journey.
