Year 1-6 Transition Program

This week we started out Transition Program for all current students in Prep-Year 5 to go into their areas for 2020 and join in with some fun wellbeing activities in their 2020 peer groupings. These groupings will change every week over the next 4 weeks as educators allow time for them to get used to their new environments in a safe and nurturing way. This program was very successful in 2019 and ensured that moving buildings and groups was a gradual and positive experience.
