Greater Shepparton City Council is advising parents, guardians and carers they can register their three and four year old children for 2026 kindergarten online via Council’s website.
In Summary
Registrations are now open and will need to be submitted by Friday 8 August 2025. Registrations for both Three-Year-Old and Four-Year-Old Kindergarten can be made by completing the online forms.
There are approximately 30 kindergarten programs offered across the municipality, with a variety of locations and programs available to suit the individual needs of children and their family, with a full list of providers available online.
A central registration process for Three-Year-Old Kindergarten (two years before school), will follow the same process as Four-Year-Old Kindergarten (one year before school) registrations.
Families wishing to attend Three-Year-Old Kindergarten will need to register via the Council registration link and not through their provider of choice. Families will be allocated a place at a service provider, following the ‘Access of Criteria’ guideline.
Three-Year-Old and Four-Year-Old Kindergarten is free or low cost for families that meet the eligibility criteria. If your child attends a kindergarten program in a long day care centre, fees may still apply. More information is available from your early childhood service.
Council facilitates kindergarten registrations for most funded kindergarten programs in Greater Shepparton. Registration forms are currently available on Council’s website.
For more information on kindergarten registrations and to register your child, visit Council’s webpage by clicking here or contact Council on (03) 5832 9700.
