Why a Mid-Year intake?
There is a large body of research that shows the benefit of high quality early learning and care experiences for children in their first 1,000 days of life, and in the years prior to school.
Our Mid-Year Reception program is a nurturing and nature filled environment to begin your child's school journey, and is designed to facilitate a smooth and seamless transition into Reception.
Students who start in Term 3 are likely to spend 18 months in Reception before progressing to Year 1.
As a way to support local families begin their child’s school journey in these challenging times, St Catherine’s Stirling are delighted to announce that there will be NO SCHOOL FEE for all 2025 mid year reception students for Terms 3 and 4 2025 (only). Please ask the school for more details.
Mid-Year Reception Intake
Most Catholic schools offer two intakes per year for children starting Reception.
Term 1 enrolment – for children who turn five years on or before April 30.
Term 3 enrolment (Mid-Year intake) - for children who turn five years on or before October 31.
Children who turn five from November 1 onwards commence Reception at the beginning of the following year.
Please discuss your enrolment options with your chosen school's principal.
Use our enrolment calculator to see whether your child qualifies for a mid-year intake.
