Pop Into Prep

Pop into Prep is a unique school immersion program that helps students transition into primary school. The program familiarises the students with the routines and expectations of school, allowing for a smooth and worry-free transition from kindergarten to school. The program is conducted in term four (dates yet to be confirmed). The program consists of several sessions at the school, with jenny also popping over to the kinder throughout terms 3 and 4. During these sessions the students will get to experience a variety of activities and become familiar with various aspects of the school as well as making connections with other students and, of course, meeting their buddies. 

The Buddies Program involves students in Year 5 and Prep. Each Prep child is paired up with a Year 5 child and they participate in a range of activities throughout the year. The aim of the Buddies Program is to ease the transition into Primary School for the prep students by providing them with a safe, reliable and positive buddy. This program gives the younger and older students a special bond of friendship, creating a safe environment for the younger children and a leadership role for the older children.
