Prep, Set, GO!
Session 1: Ready… or Not?
What does being “school ready” actually mean? We’ll unpack the skills that really matter when children begin Prep, including independence, turn-taking, expressing their needs, playing with others, managing disappointment and developing the confidence to have a go.
Reading, Counting & Confidence
Forget racing to get ahead. This session is about building the foundations for learning. We’ll explore early literacy and numeracy, how to recognise and build on your child’s emerging skills and interests, and simple ways to encourage curiosity, confidence and a love of learning at home.
Finding Their People
Friendships are a huge part of starting school.
We’ll talk about making friends, navigating the inevitable bumps along the way, and how parents can help children develop the social skills and resilience they need to find their place and feel that they belong.
Team Child
Children thrive when the important adults in their lives work together. Our final session explores the partnership between families, ELC educators and school, including how to communicate, when to reach out, what to ask, and how a strong home-school relationship can support your child throughout their transition.
