In addition, parents and children are invited to participate in a number of events that could help them in the process of starting school.
These are :
Adult workshops.
Three adult workshops are provided, one each for literacy, numeracy and Information & Communication technology. Each workshop is aimed at helping parents to use educational resources to help their child with some essential skills necessary for a good start to the school.
Resource Boxes.
Parents are invited to take a resource box home and use the contents
to put into practice what they have learnt at the workshop. The resource
box is then returned to school once the child starts school.
Settling in sessions.
The new EYP children are invited to the school on a number of
separate mornings. Children are encouraged to stay for a couple of hours
so that they have the opportunity to get to know their new classroom
and the adults who work there. Parents are most welcome to also stay
on these occasions if necessary to help to settle their child. |
