Little Achievers™ Program

The aim of school activities is to prepare your child/children for more formal school learning. Designed to cater for the individual needs of the child, lessons are structured to include 1-2 students per session.

Some children may be very shy; some have speech difficulties or other specific learning issues. Some may be advanced and ready to take off academically, while some may be proficient in most areas and have a delay in others.

Parent consultation prior to enrolment and during enrolment ensures that the needs of each and every child are properly assessed. Each child has an individualised program based on the level of readiness, achievement and needs.

Parents can enjoy a cuppa in the waiting room and chat with other parents, play with other siblings, listen to the lesson or simply enjoy the luxury of some time out.

Our teachers are ready to answer informal questions or can make a time for more in depth interviews if desired.

Our fully equipped centres offer parent resources, books, resources to borrow or purchase.
