I got to put down three Kindergarten preferences & she got in the first preference, which is the closest to home but you don't get a preference for days and times. You can find out at the AGM in November/December of the session days & times. From what I understand they just allocate days & times and I also understand it is three days per week at either three or four hours per day. It wouldn't be that difficult but I'd have to take her out of swimming during the week & try to get her in on a weekend and my mum would have to take her to kindergarten every second Friday. I guess it seems that she will be in alot of care for five 'days' per week (2 full creche days, 3 part Kindergarten days). I'll have a chat to my mums group and see what they think. I think they are all putting their kids in either kindergarten or creche' with a kindergarten program.
