Kinder 2019 Transition Boys and girls who will be attending Kindergarten at
Dubbo South in 2019 are now into their 5th week of our transition program. These new students have been
enjoying coming into school each week to play games, read stories, sing songs, make new friends and learn
about the different parts of our school. Parents have had the opportunity to come along to expo afternoons where
a variety of information was on hand ready to start the new school year. It is a very exciting time of the year and
we look forward to seeing all of the children’s and parent’s faces around our school in 2019!
No Hat No Play Students are reminded that Dubbo
South Public School has a “no hat, no play” policy. Those children who come
to school without a hat will be requested to sit in a shaded area.
