    OMG JLeigh, I just sent off his 4 year old kinder forms the other day, mind you he won't be starting that until 2015. They told me I could only send the form off once he turned 3......The lady today said that if anyone declined the first round offer, they will put the kids names back in the ballot. Seems like they have heaps of kids applying... I really don't want him to say in his cc kinder program next year, I've been told it's really different to the mainstream kinder programs. He is in a 3 to 5 year old kinder room this year, but I was hoping for a lot more structure than he is getting now.

    his age should give him higher priority for 3 yr old next year, and 4 -yr old the year after. my Apr 2010 dd is in 3 year old kinder this year, and we have applied for 4 year old next year, and wr have been told that older kids (birthdays 2009) will be given priority.

    Does the kinder offer second round offers? See if you can get his name down for that.

    Here in Melb, 3yo is decided by the kinder, 4 yo by council. We couldn't apply for 4 yo for next year until earlier this year and we just got our acceptance letter last week. I'd find out when the cut off is for 4 yo as it might vary from council to council.
