How to Help Your Child Make a Successful Start to School

Are the pre-schoolers in your care ready to cope with demands of formal schooling next year?

While learning ABCs and 123s are all part of a child’s development, there are many other aspects of a child’s school readiness that parents and teachers need to consider before they head off to ‘big school’.

In fact, current research indicates that other factors, such as a child’s social and emotional maturity, communication skills and motor coordination all play a significant part in helping help to enjoy a successful start to school.

In this comprehensive presentation, Sonja provides parents and carers with information, tips and tools to support their child in the months before school starts.
