Kinderstart/Kindergarten Registration
Welcome to the KinderStart/Kindergarten registration page. You may be asking, am I registering for KinderStart or Kindergarten? The answer is BOTH! When you register your child for Kindergarten, you are registering for KinderStart during the 2024/25 school year and Kindergarten the following September.

Children must be five (5) years of age on or before December 31, 2025 in order to register.

Check your child's Age and Eligibility for this years registration.

Type in or select your child's birth date above.

When registration starts, the visual at right is how the initial registration page will appear (click to open preview PDF of the form).

Online Registration for Kinderstart(2024)/Kindergarten(2025) will get underway May, 2024 for both the English and Early French Immersion programs, as per the NLSchools' School Zoning, Student Registration and Transfers (PROG-311) policy. The registration dates are outlined below:

EARLY FRENCH IMMERSION
The French Immersion program is designed for non-francophone children. Families interested in registering a child for the French Immersion Kindergarten Program must select their zoned school. If Early French Immersion is not offered in the zoned school, families must select the school closest to their residence which offers Early French Immersion (EFI).

Early French Immersion Kindergarten registration takes place on a first-come first served basis for a limited number of seats. This applies to all areas of the province however, it is dependent on the number of families who have registered. Applications will be dated and time-stamped upon submission. All students are entitled to a program in English - if your child is waitlisted for EFI at a school outside your zone, space will be held at the school within your zone for the English program.

Families will be provided with further information once class lists for EFI are finalized in the new school year.

Kinderstart/Kindergarten Registration is available for 4 days during May each year. Dates and times will be posted on this web page.
