Preparatory

A Day in Prep

June 16 2026

The foundations for a love of learning are often built in the smallest moments. In the Preparatory School at William Clarke College, some of the most important learning happens through exploration, play and discovery.

From tending the vegetable garden and creating imaginative worlds through play to sharing stories in the reading corner or enjoying a tea party with friends, our Prep students are developing confidence, curiosity and a growing sense of independence in a joyful and nurturing environment. It’s no wonder our Preppies love coming to school, with each day bringing new opportunities to learn, create and engage with the world around them, including through specialist lessons in Music, Drama, Library and PE.

Set within a caring Christian environment, our two-day and three-day programs provide opportunities for children to explore, create, build friendships and grow through a balance of play and purposeful learning. Designed to support a confident transition into Kindergarten, every child is known, valued and loved as they begin their educational journey with us.
