Topic: Enrolling 5.5 year old in school or kindergarten?

k.tre123

Hello,

My family and I are moving to Toronto for my husband's fellowship in August 2023 for 1 year. I am not sure if our eldest boy (who will be 5 1/2 y.o. when we arrive) should be going to elementary school or to kindergarten? He would be enrolled in primary school in Australia from Feb-July 2023 just before we come to Toronto. Could someone please confirm for me as I am receiving conflicting reports about starting elementary school at 5 or 6 years old. Our second boy will be 3 1/2 y.o. when we arrive so I presume he needs to go to daycare or kindergarten.

Any advice would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks so much.
