Reception Returns to Maddingley in 2026

I am pleased to announce the return of the Reception program at our Maddingley Campus, commencing in 2026.

This decision comes in response to strong community interest and recognises the need for flexible early learning options that support each child’s development. The program is designed for children who turn five years old between 1 January and 30 April, offering an ideal pathway for those who have been deemed school ready, but may benefit socially, emotionally and academically from an additional year before commencing Prep.

The Maddingley Reception program provides a full-time, nurturing introduction to school life. Students will build foundational literacy and numeracy skills, develop confidence and take part in creative, hands-on learning experiences. The program is carefully structured to ensure a smooth and successful transition into Prep the following year.

We look forward to welcoming our youngest learners into this enriching program.

Mrs Debra Ogston – Principal
