Moving from high school to university is an exciting new chapter, but it can also feel overwhelming for autistic students. Here are practical ways to make this transition smoother:

🏫 Get to Know the Campus:

▪️Take part in orientation events and go on campus tours to familiarise your child with key locations.
▪️Find quiet study spaces and areas for sensory breaks.

📚 Set Up Academic Support:

▪️Contact the university’s disability support team early to arrange accommodations, such as extended exam times or note-taking assistance.
▪️Encourage the use of organisational tools like calendars or apps to manage assignments and schedules.

💬 Practice Self-Advocacy Skills:

▪️Role-play how to communicate needs to professors, tutors, or support staff.
▪️Build their confidence to request adjustments or help when required.

🏠 Prepare for Independent Living:

▪️Practice daily living skills like cooking, doing laundry, or managing finances.
▪️Set up a simple, consistent routine to help manage time and energy.

👥 Encourage Social Connection:

▪️Explore interest-based clubs or societies where they can meet like-minded peers.
▪️If they prefer, practice strategies for making and maintaining friendships.

🧘 Focus on Wellbeing:

▪️Teach relaxation techniques, such as mindfulness or deep breathing, for handling stress.
▪️Encourage balance by including downtime for hobbies and sensory regulation.

🤝 Offer a Safety Net:

▪️Stay connected, but allow them space to grow. Regular check-ins can provide reassurance.
▪️Help them build a local support network, including friends, mentors, and therapists.

Transitions are about progress, not perfection. Celebrate their courage and milestones along the way! Need tailored strategies for this next stage? Reach out to WunderKind Consulting Jervis Bay—we’re here to support your neurodivergent family every step of the way.

Starting high school is an exciting but potentially overwhelming milestone, especially for autistic students. Here are practical strategies to help your child navigate this big change with confidence:

🎒 Familiarise with the Environment:

▪️Visit the school multiple times before the term starts - tour classrooms, the library, and the cafeteria.
▪️Practice using lockers, finding classrooms, and navigating timetables.

📘 Build Routines Early:

▪️Gradually adjust morning and bedtime routines to match the high school schedule.
▪️Create a checklist for essentials: uniform, lunch, schoolbooks, and any sensory tools.

🗺 Use Visual and Organisational Aids:

▪️Provide color-coded folders or notebooks for different subjects.
▪️Work on a visual map of the school to reduce anxiety around finding their way.

💬 Strengthen Social and Self-Advocacy Skills:

▪️Role-play situations like asking for help or joining a group activity.
▪️Teach them to self-advocate for accommodations, such as using a quiet space or sensory tools.

🛠 Identify Support Structures:

▪️Meet with the school’s support staff (e.g., counselors, teachers, aides) and set up an Individualised Education Plan (IEP) or equivalent.
▪️Identify safe spaces or quiet zones within the school.

💡 Teach Coping and Resilience Strategies:

▪️Practice mindfulness or breathing exercises for self-regulation.
▪️Offer reassurance that it’s okay to take breaks or feel overwhelmed - transitions take time.

🌈 Celebrate Growth:

▪️Highlight positive aspects of high school - new subjects, friendships, or extracurricular activities.
▪️Be there to cheer them on as they navigate this new chapter!

Transitions are a journey, and with the right support, your autistic child can thrive in high school. If you need tailored guidance for your family, reach out to WunderKind Consulting Jervis Bay.

🗓 Plan Ahead:

▪️Start following a morning and evening routine similar to the school schedule weeks before the start date.
▪️Practice packing the school bag or wearing the uniform.

🎨 Use Visual Supports:

▪️Create a visual schedule for their school day.
▪️Use social stories to explain what to expect at school.

🧘‍♀️ Emphasise Emotional Regulation:

▪️Practice calming strategies like breathing exercises or using sensory tools.
▪️Set up a quiet, comforting space at home for decompression after school.

💬 Foster Communication:

▪️Work with the school to establish effective communication methods (e.g., communication books and visuals).

💞 Build Connection:

▪️Arrange playdates with potential classmates.

At WunderKind Consulting, we welcome the release of Barbie Fashionistas Doll #245 — the first autistic Barbie — as a positive step toward authentic and respectful representation.
Created in collaboration with the Autistic Self Advocacy Network, this doll reflects lived experience and highlights an important truth: autism is not one size fits all. Thoughtful features such as sensory-friendly clothing, noise-cancelling headphones, a fidget, and an AAC device acknowledge that autistic people regulate, communicate, and interact with the world in many different ways. This Barbie represents just one expression of autism, not a definition of it.
Representation in play matters. When autistic children see themselves reflected in everyday toys, it supports identity, belonging, and self-understanding. At the same time, it helps families, educators, and peers recognise that difference is normal — and that support, environments, and expectations need to be flexible rather than uniform.
We value initiatives that centre neurodivergent voices and reinforce the message that inclusion works best when we move away from “one size fits all” approaches and instead respond to individual strengths, needs, and experiences.

Constipation can be a tough challenge for neurodivergent children, but a few small changes can make a big difference. Here are some helpful tips to try:

✅ Stay Hydrated: Encourage plenty of water throughout the day.
✅ Fiber-Rich Foods: Include fruits, veggies, and whole grains in meals and snacks.
✅ Use a Squatty Potty: Elevating the feet during toilet time can help improve posture and make bowel movements easier.
✅ Blow Bubbles: Blowing bubbles or pretending to blow up a balloon encourages deep belly breathing, which can relax muscles and help things move along.
✅ Movement Matters: Gentle exercises like stretching or walking can stimulate digestion.
✅ Set a Routine: Establish regular bathroom times to create a consistent habit.
✅ Stay Calm and Patient: Keep the atmosphere relaxed and reassuring to avoid added stress.

The Christmas school holidays are the perfect time to work on important milestones like toilet training in a relaxed and familiar environment. Here are some tips to support your neurodivergent child during this transition:

💡 Tips for Success:
✅ Visual Schedule: Use pictures or symbols to outline the steps of using the toilet, helping your child understand the process.
✅ Set a Routine: Consistency is key—set reminders for toilet breaks throughout the day.
✅ Celebrate Progress: Celebrate small wins with praise or a favorite activity.
✅ Offer Comfort: If your child is overwhelmed by sensory differences, consider options like soft toilet seats or noise-canceling headphones.
✅ Practice Patience: Every child progresses at their own pace—remember, it’s okay to take breaks when needed.

✨ Bonus Tip: Use the festive spirit to make training fun! Decorate the bathroom or use themed stickers as rewards.
