We have two spots left in our transition to school group, starting this Friday!
This group is a supportive, engaging space where children can build confidence, develop communication skills, engage in targeted fine motor activities, and explore what to expect in the Prep environment all in a fun and neuro-affirming way that celebrates each child’s individual strengths, pace and needs.
The group is run by two clinicians, and has been created by OTs, speech pathologists and physiotherapists with specifically targeted goals for children to understand what transitioning to school might be like.
Children leave with an "All About Me" booklet exploring their thoughts and feelings surrounding starting at school, and some ideas about what might support them with their transition!
Each 1.5-hour session is structured similarly to a snippet of a school session. Children will arrive, unpack their bags, and engage in a regulation gross-motor activity. They’ll then move into a short group book time, followed by snack time.
We’ll then move into a table-based activity with a fine motor focus, and towards the end of the program, will explore feelings and themes surrounding transitioning to school. We’ll end with a free-play time, encouraging and supporting social engagement. Activities are flexible and tailored to each child’s goals and support needs.
If your child is starting school next year and you think this would support their transition, give us a call on (03) 54101254 or email admin@treehousepaediatrics.com.au
