Kickstart for Kindergarten
Learning and extending on the basics.
In Kick Start for Kindergarten, we focus on strengthening the foundational skills children need before beginning school. We help students practise and extend the basics of early literacy and numeracy, such as recognising sounds, letters, numbers, and simple patterns so they feel capable and ready to keep building once they start Kindergarten. As teachers, we understand the need for these basic skills in allowing children to access activities taught in Kindergarten.
