<p>Do you know how to best prepare your child for Primary School? Join us for an informative workshop that aims to introduce you to what it truly means for your child to be &#34;school ready.&#34; </p>

<p>We’ll explore the concept of &#039;School Readiness&#039;—what it really means and why it’s so important. You’ll learn about the key developmental milestones that occur in your child&#039;s Early Years and how these milestones contribute to the behaviours and characteristics of a &#039;school ready&#039; child. We’ll also share practical strategies and resources you can use at home to support your child’s development. </p>

<p>By the end of the session, you’ll leave with a deeper understanding of the key skills that will hopefully support your child when they start Primary School and what you can do together to prepare for this. We will also share further Family Learning courses and sessions that can support you on this exciting journey. </p>
