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.
