Moving up

Emotional resilience for new school adventures

Moving up and changing school is a big change for children and parents or caregivers. It’s a new stage of growing independence and separation – and ‘togetherness’ may look different. Fears and worries are normal as well as excitement, as with each stage of childhood development. As parents, your role is to help your children cope with and overcome their fears, to nurture them to feel brave and capable.
