A Positive Start to School at Whittington Primary School.

Starting school marks an important milestone in the lives of young children.

Children’s adjustment to their first year at school is strongly influenced by their familiarity with the school setting and the positive support provided by both families and the school staff.

At Whittington Primary School, we believe it is of vital importance to make the transition from home or a preschool setting to the school situation as smooth as possible.

Our Prep Transition program will:

• Assist pre-schoolers in making a successful transition to the school environment.

• Provide opportunities for the children to participate in classroom activities

• Provide opportunities for children to practise skills necessary for school

• Encourage new friendships

• Provide information and support for parents.

During Term 4, we run a Transition Program for our incoming prep students. These sessions are held within the Prep Classrooms and students are encouraged to participate in a variety of activities designed to help them feel comfortable in a classroom situation. We arrange for Buddies (Year 5/6 students) to meet and support the students in the later stages of the Transition Program.
