Kindergarten Gradual Entry 2025

June 28, 2025 By Lisa Lawrance

Dear Parents of New Kindergarten Students,

Welcome to Kindergarten at Laity View Elementary.  We will begin the year with a gradual entry process. Gradual entry promotes a safe and healthy start to full time attendance and allows children to gradually understand routines, make friends, connect with teachers, and feel comfortable at school.  It also provides parents with comfort and reassurance that their child’s adjustment needs have been well considered.

There is no school for new Kindergarten students on Tuesday, September 2.  You will be contacted regarding a specific scheduled appointment if necessary.  We are looking forward to an exciting year of learning together.  We wish you all a wonderful summer and we cannot wait to see you all In September! 

Sincerely,

Laity View Kindergarten Team
