Ready Set Pre-School Playgroup (FREE) for 3 to 5 year olds

Helping little learners feel confident, capable and ready for preschool!

Is your child getting ready to start preschool or kindergarten? Our free, Ready, Set, Preschool! program helps children build the everyday skills they need to participate in a classroom environment, all through play, fun and supported practice.

Run by Can Speak’s Speech Pathology and Occupational Therapy team, children will have opportunities to practise:

• 🎲 Playing games, taking turns and joining in with others

• 📚 Listening to stories and following visual routines

• 🎒 Packing a school bag and opening lunchboxes

• 👟 Developing independence with dressing and everyday routines

• ✂️ Building fine motor skills through drawing, craft and play

• 💬 Communicating needs, asking for help and navigating transitions

Our focus is on building confidence, communication, independence and participation not worksheets or academic skills. Activities are play-based, supportive and designed to help children practise skills they can use in everyday preschool and kindergarten routines.
