How do children go to kindergarten after immigrating to Australia?

Like China, Australian kindergartens are divided into public and private ones. Public charges are cheaper, but the opening hours are shorter. For example, in kindergartens in downtown Sydney, private fees are generally between110/30 Australian dollars per day, and public fees are between 80-90 Australian dollars. Public kindergartens outside the city center are 50-60 Australian dollars a day, and private kindergartens are 80-95 Australian dollars. In addition to institutional kindergartens, there are many family-run kindergartens, which can recruit 3-5 or even more children according to the limitation of home space, which is also a good choice. Because of the high cost, many children choose to go to school for two or three days a week, and the rest time is taken care of by their parents at home, or they don't go to kindergarten. Therefore, parents in Australia choose not to work or do part-time jobs two or three days a week before their children go to primary school.

Kindergartens are generally divided into "nursery", "toddler" and "preschool". Kindergarten 0-2 years old, small class 2-3 years old, big class 3-6 years old. The daily schedule is slightly different, but the average private kindergarten will open early and close late every day, totaling about 1 1 hour, which is convenient for parents to pick up and drop off from work.

All kindergarten teachers, whether part-time or full-time, need relevant certificates, and their names and photos are published in the park. All the teachers are gentle and caring, and often hug their children, so that they can feel happiness and love all the time.

The conditions and principles for choosing a kindergarten are based on the following points:

The methods are: field investigation; Visit possible nurseries more than once; Observe how nursery staff interact with children; Pay attention to how the nursery works; Ask to see the qualification certificate. Parents are advised to visit without an appointment, and parents should be welcomed by nurseries.
