Eek, school transition starts now.

I have no clue if the smallest will be ready but let’s hope so.

Our new Primary 1s came along for a 🧸Teddy Bears Picnic this week. They enjoyed spending time in our outdoor classroom listening to a story 📖, playing games and singing nursery rhymes 🎶 . They even enjoyed a wee ice lolly, too! #P1transition #startingschool

When I am CALM is a great book to read with little ones #startingschool or nursery 😊

Examples of what 'calm' feels like can help children recognise and understand their and each other's behaviours.

Starting school can bring big feelings As parents and carers, we can help by normalising those worries and giving children safe ways to explore them. Small steps and gentle reassurance can make a big difference. #StartingSchool #EduSky #BlueSkyEPs #Transitions #EarlyYears #Wellbeing #ParentSupport
