Goals:
For participants to develop the following skills over the 3 day intensive
- show an emerging ability to express emotional language

- produce a personal narrative with support in session
- engage in age appropriate neuro-affirming social communication skills like turn taking, sharing and listening
Our Prep Readiness Program is designed to support children as they prepare for their first year of formal schooling, helping to build confidence and create a smooth transition into Prep.
Sessions are run by a neuro-affirming speech pathologist and focus on supporting each child’s individual strengths while building the communication and interaction skills needed for the classroom environment.
Through play-based and engaging activities, we target key areas including:
- Pre-literacy and early reading skills (e.g. sound awareness and listening skills)
- Social communication and peer interaction
- Oral language skills (e.g. storytelling, vocabulary, and expressing ideas)
- Play skills and cooperative play with others
Our neuro-affirming approach recognises and respects different ways of communicating and learning. The program aims to create a supportive environment where children can develop skills, build friendships, and feel confident as they begin their school journey.
