Enrol your child. (Many schools advertise in local newspapers when they are ready to receive enrolments.)
Familiarise your child with the school’s location.
Take your child on an orientation visit to the school if possible.
Build a positive feeling about going to this new place by talking with your child about the interesting experiences school will offer – new friends, games, painting, new equipment to play on.
Ask about arrangements for the first day such as the arrival time, where to go, what your child needs on the day.
