Ready, Set, Go!
2014 Gippsland Education Excellence Award winner
Ready, Set, Go is a transition program that allows children to develop and practise some skills necessary for school. Language, fine and gross motor, literacy and numeracy readiness are a focus of the program. Children participate in directed activities which extend the ‘kinder’ experience and have them ready to start formal work at school at the beginning of their prep year. The program makes use of the school facilities, for example the gym for the Perceptual Motor Program, which helps the children to become familiar with the school setting.
