This is a programme where children have the opportunity to be part of the New Entrant programme that St Gerard’s has to offer. It is for children already enrolled at our school or for families thinking about St Gerard’s as their school of choice. This is an opportunity for children to get to know Mrs Flannery and become familiar with the regular routines and events of a school morning while getting to meet peers.
Early Explorers will take place on Thursday mornings from 8.30-11am for 10 weeks prior to a child beginning school.
During this programme the focus will be on the following:
Emotional readiness
Social routines
Organization and manipulative skills
Gross and fine motor skills
Early language and numeracy knowledge
What We Need From Parents?
