Preschool to Prep Transition
We believe a smooth transition from Preschool to Prep (Foundation) is vital to provide a positive start to school life for each child and their parents.
Our Prep Transition program begins in October. The incoming Preps meet with their buddies in Year 5 (Year 6 next year) who will support them throughout their Prep journey. They take part in a range of activities and meet other Preps who will be in their classes. The children also meet many of the teachers in the school, including their classroom teacher for their Prep year, who will visit them before school begins for a home visit.
Transition Prep through Year 6
School transition is a process of movement or change that takes place from one school year to the next. This change could include changes in the physical surroundings, friendships, relationships, expectations and routines.
It is our endeavour at Holy Trinity to provide support and clear processes for all students as they move through their educational journey. For some students, family and teachers, transition may present a number of challenges. At Holy Trinity we have implemented a variety of programs that aim to provide additional transition support for our students that:
- Encourage smooth and effective transition for all students.
- Support teachers as they plan, monitor and assess student progress and continue to develop educational pathways for all students.
- Include personal, social and teaching and learning transition needs of students at risk.
- Display flexibility in timelines to accommodate all students.
