Your daughter will start school the year she truns 5 (if she is 5 before June 30, which she will be), meaning she will be due to start Prep (school) in January 2014.

The year prior she can go to Pre Prep (kindy), usually 2 days a week or something like that. My son goes 2days one week & 3days the next. He doesn't have to go to kindy but it's great interaction & the teacher is able to keep me up to date as to if he will be ready for school or not.

My son in an April baby, this makes him one of the youngest in his class due to the June cut off.

As for 3yr old kindy...I'm not sure if some people send there children to early learning centre/daycare and call this 3yr old kindy? but as I am aware you have to be turning 4 before June 30 that year to go to kindy & they take these children first before accepting younger children. But yes many early learning centres, childcare, montessori (sp?) have 3yr kindy rooms, but that's for if you want to send them.
