A new school year is an exciting time for students and families, but it can be a big step – particularly for those starting Prep or moving to secondary school.
The Department of Education has published a webpage with resources and information to help you prepare for the new school year.
Please consider reading through the resources, which include:
· tips to help transition between kinder and Prep and primary to secondary school
· what to expect at school
· help with school costs and fees
· health and wellbeing guidance to support children’s mental health. Please refer to the New year of learning webpage.
