Coleraine Primary School Transition Program

Dear Four-year Old Group Parents,
Please see the below letter from Coleraine Primary School. It has also been placed in your child's pocket.
Kind regards,
Georgina Templeton
President









Dear Parents,

Starting school marks an important milestone. Recent studies suggest that children’s adjustment to their first year at school is strongly influenced by their familiarity with the school setting.

At Coleraine Primary School we want to make the transition from kindergarten to the school environment as smooth as possible for every child. The Coleraine Primary School Transition Program will:

  • assist children in making a successful adjustment to the school environment
  • offer an opportunity to participate in classroom activities
  • allow the children to practice skills necessary for school
  • encourage new friendships and develop a support system
  • provide information and support for parents



We extend a warm welcome to all kindergarten children and their parents to participate in the activities at Coleraine Primary School. We look forward to meeting and getting to know 2017 prep students and their families.

We invite all parents and pre-school children to come along to Coleraine Primary School on Tuesday 31st May.  There will be a BBQ dinner from 6.00-7:30pm where parents can participate in a tour of the school or in the morning at 9:15am for a tour and morning tea.  If these times are not convenient please don’t hesitate to contact the school and book in to have a tour at another time.

Kind Regards
