Do you offer a school readiness program?
We offer a School Readiness Program that is based on your child’s individual educational growth. The program is based on play-based learning alongside the Montessori program to allow teachers to expand and further develop a child’s skills in the specific areas of social interaction, physical skills, emotional development, play, language, literacy and fine motor skills.
We encourage families to be involved in children's learning and support of our local schools and communities. We also encourage children to bring their own lunch boxes daily, so that they become familiar with what school lunch time will feel like. We recognise that these are all essential steps to a smooth transitioning to school and have no doubt the program will prepare your child for primary school.
