2019 Pre-Prep Information Booklet

A Warm Welcome To All Parents and Children We are very excited to welcome you to Pre-Prep at Somerset College in 2019. We know that your association with the College will be a happy and beneficial one. We are delighted to have the opportunity to work with you, as we believe that education is a combined venture between children, parents, teachers and the community. We have three Pre-Prep classes – Yellow (5-day week), Red and Blue (5-day fortnight, as per calendar) – each staffed by a qualified Early Childhood teacher and teacher assistant, with an additional assistant floating between the two classes each day. Each teacher is responsible for the organisation, conduct and curriculum of the group within the class. The classes will work closely together, sharing many areas of Pre-Prep and working cohesively with all the teachers and teacher assistants. For all matters concerning your child, we ask that you please consult your child’s teacher. Website: www.somerset.qld.edu.au Early next year, you will be sent information as a new parent about our online environment, Schoolbox . Through this you will receive regular communication and be able to see information about your child’s class, the Junior School and the College. Individual login details will be sent to you at the time your child starts. Beginning of the Day Pre-Prep begins at 8.40am, with supervision in the room from 8.15am. Please park in the Early Years Precinct car park (the car park closest to the Pre-Prep area), and accompany your child to the Pre-Prep area. Children must be signed into the class by an adult over 18 years of age. End of the Day Pre-Prep concludes at 3.20pm and children are to be signed out by a parent, legal guardian or an authorised person. The College requires written authorisation for anyone to collect your Pre-Prep child. Siblings from the College are not able to collect children from Pre-Prep. You are able to collect your child from the classroom from 2.40pm if required. Contact Details for Somerset College Phone: 07 5559 7372 (Junior School Reception)
