The Department of Education is hosting a Zoom webinar to provide information about Kindergarten registration and Early French Immersion Kindergarten programs for the 2025–2026 school year.
The session will be held on Wednesday, January 22, at 7 pm.
All Yukon parents and guardians are invited to attend this information session to learn about the registration process, program details and to have their questions answered by department staff.
Yukon children who will be five years old by December 31, 2025, are eligible to start Kindergarten this coming school year.

If they cannot provide it at the time, they can present it to the school later. Zoom webinar link: https://yukonedu.zoom.us/j/67412999952?pwd=17Dk7obvAy5yI34JWiKkaJI8mCOaIg.1
