RETURN TO SCHOOL TIPS

“Over the school holidays, it’s wonderful to see kids relax and enjoy themselves. As the new school year approaches, a gentle “wind-down” can really help with the preparation to going back to school. In the last two weeks before school returns, aim for a calmer, simpler holiday routine with fewer outings, earlier nights, and less constant entertainment. The idea is to dial down the stimulation. You may even start hearing, “I’m bored,” or “I’m ready to go back to school,” because school begins to feel more appealing.”

“Pair this with practical preparation such as uniforms washed, tried on, and ready (with any adjustments or new purchases sorted before the first day), bags organised, and basic supplies on hand for the first week, even before the official list arrives.

“Better still, take your child shopping with you for a few key items: a new set of pencils or pens, a notebook, or stationery they genuinely like. Having something fresh they’re excited to use can boost motivation and make the return to school feel more positive and purposeful. Together, a calmer lead-in plus practical planning sets everyone up for a confident, smoother start to the year.”
