School transition
Starting school is one of the significant transitions in life. The team at Friends Childcare work with you and your child’s local school community to provide a seamless and smooth transition for everyone. The centre is regularly involved in school events like open days, end of year performances and information nights. School teachers visit children at Friends Childcare in a familiar environment in preparation for big school. We provide the NSW transition to school statements and meet with schools to ensure a smooth handover.
“To the Friends Team of Educators and Teachers, I would like to take a minute to thank you for the time you took to fill out the transition to school statements for the children from your centre. Both myself and the other kindergarten teachers found the information you gave very informative. With this information we certainly have used it to create a smooth transition for them and set them up for success for their time here at Albert Park Public School with a sense of being, becoming and belonging. A teacher takes a hand, opens a mind and touches a heart”.
