Where are my school shoes? Where is my sports uniform? Why do I have to wear a mask? We have listed some tips to assist you to support your children when they return to learning at school.

Some students may require additional support to transition back to school-based learning. Children and young people may be concerned about reconnecting with their friends, being separated from their parents, catching COVID-19, or readjusting to being in a classroom full of students. 

Penny Van Bergen, Associate Professor in Educational Psychology, Macquarie University, and Erin Mackenzie, Lecturer in Education, Western Sydney University, co-authored an article in The Conversation explaining in further detail how and why parents and carers can help prepare their children for the return to school. 

The tips are to 

  1. Renegotiate routines

  2. Allow time for adjustment

  3. Acknowledge children’s worries

  4. Coach empathy

  5. Be optimistic

Returning to school will require a change in routine for everyone in the family and it may take a few weeks for the family to adjust to the new schedule. You can read the full article here.

If you are concerned about your child's behaviour you can contact their teacher or visit visit Kids Helpline, Beyond Blue, or Headspace.
