Heritage School


Starting a new school year can be an exciting experience, however some children can find change difficult to manage.

You can support your child to prepare for these changes by:
  Visiting the new school with your child, 
 Talking about landmarks on the journey to school with your child, 
 Meeting your child’s new teacher, and introducing your child to them, 
 Visiting your child’s new classroom, and 
 Playing on the playground. 

You might find it helpful to schedule a meeting to go to your child’s new school with them to meet their teacher and look around the classroom. You may also like to go back on the weekend so that they can play in the playground while it is empty. Supporting your child these changes can help to create a positive and nurturing experience for your child.
