Event Description
Is Your Little One Starting School Soon? Let’s Get Ready Together!
Starting school is a big milestone, exciting, a little nerve-wracking, and full of new adventures! Our Starting Reception Workshop is here to help both you and your child feel confident, prepared, and ready to make this transition a positive one.
Join us for a friendly, practical session packed with tips on:
Building independence – coats, shoes, toileting and more
Supporting social and emotional skills
Everyday ideas to get school-ready
Helping you feel calm and prepared for this new chapter
This workshop is perfect for parents and carers of children aged 3+ living in the London Borough of Sutton. (Please note: spaces are not suitable for children under 3.)
Facilitated by Sutton Children’s Centres & Sutton Health & Care, it’s also a great opportunity to connect with other parents, ask questions, and get support.
Now running virtually for more flexibility! A link to join will be sent closer to the workshop date. Don’t forget to check your inbox (and spam folder) before the session.
Spaces are limited book today and let’s make starting school an exciting adventure!
