Recommendations to Primarily Assist in Your Child’s Preschool Readiness  

Kicking off preschool is a massive transformation, and prior preparation is pivotal. Here are adjustments approved by Arzana that will foster an effective and enjoyable shift:  

1. Walk Your Child through Step by Step with a Clear Wake-Up Routine  

Reliable and set schedules foster a child’s feelings and confidence towards safe preparedness. Before school, practice:

• Set wake-up time  
• Teeth brushing and dressing  
• Shared breakfast  
• Getting ready for the school ride 
  

Feel free to create a visual timetable with images of the outlined activities. Just like at school, this would aid understanding of the next sequence.

2. Explore the School as a Family  

We encourage families to schedule a visit to Arzana Private School before the term starts. During the visit, children can:  

• Preview the session activities.
• Interact with their teacher.
• Engage in a range of brief, enjoyable activities.

Children participating in these activities feel less nervous and more curious for the bigger day. We host an orientation session for families who want to know more about the school so that they can talk to staff, ask questions, and get the spirit of the school culture.

3. Foster Independence at Home

Learning essential self-help skills at an early age helps children become more confident and more resilient in the future. Aid them in self-help skills such as

• Using the toilet

• Washing hands

• They put on their shoes and wore their backpacks.

• Opening snack boxes or water bottles

• Cleaning up toys or books

Don’t be concerned when the children don’t master these tasks. Our patient and kind teachers will be there to encourage them along the way.

4. Use Talk and Play to Improve Self-Esteem

Discuss the details with them.

• “You will be able to make friends.”

• “The activities will be singing, painting, and fun games.”

• The teacher is friendly and will undoubtedly help you.”

Practice activities like circle time, saying goodbye, and snack time. Packing a school bag by using toys and books to act out preschool scenarios.

Play is emphasized as the primary method of learning at Arzana. Preschoolers are intentionally taught the foundations of early literacy and numeracy through play in a stress-relieving, gentle manner.
