September is not far away 📚

13th Mar 2025

Getting school-ready for September means ensuring children are prepared both academically and emotionally for the new term. This includes establishing a good routine, practicing key skills like reading together and having a go at drawing and writing, whilst also encouraging independence with tasks such as dressing and packing a school bag. It’s also important to talk positively about school, help children manage any anxieties, and ensure they have all necessary supplies, like uniforms and stationery. A smooth transition sets the stage for a confident and successful start to the school year.
