For primary-school-age children, and especially kindy kids, a routine will help make each day the best it can be.
At first, you might like to stay for a while until your child feels secure at school. When your child has settled into school, a short and reassuring goodbye encourages independence. Let them know who will pick them up at the end of the day.
When school finishes each day, your child’s class will gather at a regular place. Your child’s teacher will wait with the children. Make sure your child and their teacher know who will be collecting them each afternoon. Children can get upset if the person picking them up comes late. Check with their teacher about the best time to arrive in the afternoon and where to stand.
Kindergarten children can get very tired at night because they are doing so many new and exciting things. For this reason, it helps if you keep routines like bath time, meals and reading routines as regular as possible. It’s important to leave time for your child to play and get a good night’s sleep each night.

All of us, at Keiraville Public School, would like to acknowledge the Wodi Wodi and Dharawal people of the Five Islands Dreaming, who are the traditional custodians of this land. Our school community would like to pay our respects to the Elders past, present and those emerging. KPS would like to acknowledge Grandmother mountain, Geera and Grandfather mountain, Gembla, who have provided food, shelter and knowledge for generations of Aboriginal people. We are grateful and honoured to learn in the foothills of Mount Keira and to be protected, nurtured and watched over by her. Our gift to her is to be respectful, honest, proud, safe and responsible. We aim to be caring of others and Country.
