It’s September, that means starting school! 🎒

We’re wishing all children, but especially those starting Reception, a brilliant year ahead. ✨

Starting school is a big milestone, but it's the small, everyday moments, like getting dressed independently, sharing, getting along with others and being able to talk about how they are feeling, that will give them the confidence to settle in at school.

Remember, you can visit Best Start in Life for advice and tips that will help your child feel prepared for school. Or speak to the school or visit a Best Start Family Hub if you have any worries.
