KinderStart
is a transition to school program developed by the Department of
Education’s Early Childhood
Development-Kindergarten Working Group in 2002. It consists of a series of
eight one-hour orientation sessions for children and their
parents/caregivers in the year prior to Kindergarten entry. A
KinderStart program
guide has been provided to schools throughout the province along with
activity resources for Kindergarten classrooms. During the first
KinderStart session, children and their parents/caregivers will be
provided with an activity resource bag and suggestions for home
activities.
