Why High School Prep School


One of the most difficult times a child will face, is the transition from primary school into high school. Especially now, as they enter at a much younger age.

Common challenges include making new friends, diverse class groups, less flexible timetable, adapting to different teachers, higher academic demands and increased volumes of homework.

With this in mind, our programme is specifically designed to support year six students to become curious and confident learners, manage stress and anxiety, actually identify mistakes as opportunities for growth and successfully navigate the leap from primary school into high school.

The Programme

The full programme covers academic, social and emotional wellbeing.

The specific topics covered are:
How to Thrive and Survive
Characters in English
Investigating HASS
Problem Solving Maths
Curiosity in Science
Curriculum Consolidation
Your Fantastic Brain
Taming the Anxiety Tiger

Additionally, 1 seminar will be run just for parents: 
How to support your child's transition to high school.

When is the programme run

The programme runs in both Term 4 and also in the January school holidays. 
In term four the groups run for 2 hours each, for six weeks starting with the academic component, followed by two weeks consisting of the social & wellbeing component, which run for 3 hours each.

The January groups run for 12 hours over three days.
The parent's seminar will run on one evening for 1 and a half hours.
