Supporting the transition to school

We support tamariki to feel confident and ready for school by gradually building their independence, self regulation skills, social competence and love of learning. 

This includes everyday skills like:

• Caring for themselves
• Making choices
• Problem solving
• Working alongside others.

As children get closer to starting school, our kaiako work closely with parents, whānau and, where possible, local schools to ensure a smooth and positive transition. We share information, encourage school visits, and tailor support to each child so their move to school feels familiar and well supported. 

We’d be happy to talk more about how we support your child’s transition to school, feel free to get in touch or chat with our team.
