Supporting the Transition to School Video Series

Starting school is a very exciting time for children. They’ll meet friends, learn new skills and build relationships with their teachers. Almost 90% of a child’s brain development happens before they turn five years old. Skills and behaviours learnt during the early years can help children to have a smooth start to kindergarten and throughout life.

This video series provides practical ideas to help parents, carers, Early Childhood Educators and teachers to support a positive start to school.
