Ready for School/Pre-Kindergarten is part of our curriculum designed specifically for children attending New Leaf Learning and Childcare Centre in the year before school. It supports your child in being confident with a positive self esteem and attitude towards starting school and combines education, health and wellbeing skills necessary for the next big step to school! As a part of this program our Educators team will complete a ready for school screening on each child to evaluate their motor, language, social, emergent literacy and self-care skills.
Children learn best when they are actively involved. We offer hands-on activities that encourage curiosity and problem-solving. Through games and group projects, we make learning exciting and help develop your child’s creativity.
