Starting school

We didn’t realise quite how much there was to talk about on this topic until we pressed record...this includes: 


  • How our own experiences effect our feelings about children starting school. 
  • Some things to think about before they start (things like ‘can they open their lunchbox’ for example can be practiced by having picnics over the summer) 
  • Emotions – a mix of emotions are completely natural and why it’s important not to worry if your little one doesn’t always feel happy about starting school. 
  • Being brave! What you can do to become a part of the school community. 
  • The first day - at the start of the day and at the end (don’t underestimate how tired they will be!) 
  • Some things you can do to get your little one to talk about their day (although we can’t guarantee they will work!!).
