What to Expect
This engaging literacy support program is tailored specifically for children in years 2, 3, and 4, focusing on enhancing their reading and writing abilities in a supportive environment. Parents can expect their children to gain confidence and skills that will help them excel in school.
Sessions encourage active participation and provide a structured approach to literacy development, making learning enjoyable and effective. Children are asked to bring a notebook and pencil to each class to support their learning.
The program runs over multiple sessions throughout Term 2, allowing children to build on their skills progressively.
