Kindy and Pre-primary Readiness Group

Kindy & Pre-primary Ready
Ages 3–5 · Saturday mornings · Lathlain

Starting kindy or pre-primary is a big step. Kindy & Pre-primary Ready gives children a gentle head start over the summer holidays, in a small, calm group where they can build skills and confidence before the school year begins.

The group is run by an occupational therapist and a speech pathologist, so children get support with hands-on skills and with communication in the same session. Groups are small, with no more than 8 children.

Children will work on:

• Fine motor play: pencil skills, cutting and drawing shapes
• Independence: managing their own bag, lunchbox and belongings
• Play skills: playing with other children
• Group routines: mat time, moving between activities and following simple instructions
• Early reading: enjoying books, rhymes and letter sounds
• Communication: asking for help, sharing ideas and taking turns to talk

When: Saturdays 16, 23 and 30 January, and 13 February 2027, from 9:00 to 11:00am. The last session falls in the second week of term, so we can check in on how your child is settling in.

Where: our Lathlain clinic.

Cost: $150 per session, or $100 per session for a sibling.

Ages are a guide. If you’re not sure whether the group suits your child, give us a call on 1300 339 493.

Spaces are limited. We confirm which groups go ahead on Fri 18 Dec, so contact us to save your spot.
