Our School Readiness Program helps children prepare for school by building essential learning skills to support their transition. The program encourages children to increase their independence skills and confidence through building social, emotional and communication skills.

Children and their families attend a weekly session for an hour, for a total of 4 weeks. At the moment group sessions are run virtually. The virtual sessions are run by our highly skilled team of special education specialists. Children attending the school readiness virtual groups get to know each other and form special connections and social skills during the sessions.
Group environments aren’t suited to every child, so we also offer one-on-one learning situations with a key worker and the child’s family. These sessions cover the same program as the group sessions and are tailored to each individual child and family.
