Transition to School

Transition for Pre-enrolled students

Our transition policy below outlines the steps and activities we will have in place for children turning five during the year and starting school as New Entrants, as well as for children starting during the year from other schools.  The three main transition activities for new five year olds include:

  • Invitation to our Four Year Old Progamme
  • Visit to the child's early child care centre and talk with their teacher
  • Two school visits

For children who are pre-enrolled, we will contact you close to the time of your child starting school to organise early child care centre and school visits. 

 

Four Year Old Programme

Our four year old programme in 2013 will run every Wednesday from 11:30am to 12:30pm (starting on Wednesday 13th February)
Children who are pre-enrolled and are four years of age are invited to join our newest Year One children for one hour of activities. Come along before 11:30am in you would like to join in morning tea and play.
Meet us on the blue matting overlooking the sports field outside Koru hub.  Meet the teachers and other children.  Become familiar with our school environment and equipment.  Make new friends!
