The kids who fly in Prep are the ones who arrive ready.
Knowing the ABC song is a start. But Prep needs more.
Children who walk into Prep already knowing letter sounds, not just letter names, learn to read faster, feel more confident, and enjoy school more.
That’s what our prekinder and kinder program builds. Quietly, gently, one class a week.
Your child's first class is on us.
We know that making the right choice for your child’s learning is a big decision. So come and see! 80% of our community enrol before they’ve left the trial class! Your child joins a real class. You see how it works. They meet their teacher. And you decide if it’s right for your family. No pressure.
No tour. Just one real class — free.

“Hi, my name is Wing, and my son, Jamie, started Reading Bees at four years old. I discovered Reading Bees through my friend. My friend told me it was a good experience, so I signed up! The best thing about Reading Bees is that whenever he sees a new word, he tries to pronounce it – he knows how to combine the sounds.
Reading Bees helps him build up his reading confidence. Soon, he will start reading books by himself! Because he plays so many games and learns his counting through play–based activities, he is showing more interest in maths. So, yes – it’s wonderful.
I am so glad that I started Jamie at Reading Bees in pre-Kinder. He is ready for school and has the foundation for reading, writing and maths.”
— Wing, satisfied parent
