LITTLE SCHOLARS

LITTLE SCHOLARS

MID-YEAR RECEPTION

At Unity College, we believe that children who feel happy and secure can adapt, learn and develop more quickly. Our Little Scholars program is designed to settle children into school life in a dedicated and safe environment that provides comfort, support and stability for your child.

Children eligible for mid-year intake (those who turn five years old between 1 May and 31 October) will spend Terms 3 and 4 in Little Scholars, laying the foundation of their school journey in preparation for their Reception year.

Little Scholars students at Unity College have their own classroom and play garden, whilst also enjoying all the facilities of the Junior School. Your child will participate in a play based learning program led by a qualified Early Years teacher that follows the structure of the ‘big school’, so they can enjoy an effortless transition into Reception.

Your child will thrive with:

  • Dedicated and strengthened kindy to school transition.
  • Better understanding of school routines when beginning Reception.
  • Familiarity and comfort with the school environment.
  • Increased support with their social and emotional development.
  • Higher levels of independence and confidence.
  • Participation in our Buddy Program (P-R:Year 4s) which continues with transition to R:Year 5s.
  • Special learning opportunities such as agriculture, music and sports.
  • Exploration of dedicated indoor and outdoor spaces including the nature playground, bush block and vegie patches.
