Set for School: A Parent Talk
Helping Families Prepare for a Calm & Confident Start to Prep
Starting school is a big milestone—for children and their grown-ups.
But it doesn’t have to be overwhelming.
That’s why I created Set for School, a practical, supportive talk designed especially for parents and carers of children starting Prep.
In this 60-minute session, I guide families through how to best support their child’s transition to school—without pressure or panic. I also use design thinking activities to actively engage parents, helping them explore and develop personalised ways to support their child’s unique needs and strengths.
-
✔ What to expect in Prep—from daily routines to learning environments
✔ How to identify and support missing skills—gently and playfully
✔ How to build independence and confidence in their child
✔ Advocacy tips—knowing when and how to speak up for your child
✔ Time for Q&A—because every family’s journey is different
-
✔ Childcare centres, kindergartens, and early learning services who want to support families
✔ Parents and carers of 3–5 year olds preparing for the Primary School transition
✔ Communities who believe in empowering parents to create calm, confident transitions
