Kinder for Max in 2025 does have a new shine to it. Max is going to a different kindergarten service than his older brother attended. This will give Max the best chance to make new connections and explore the world around him.
‘Being the younger brother, Max has typically been dragged along to play dates and other social events with his brother. I’m looking forward to Max making new social connections of his own, developing his social skills and building friendships’ said his mum, Caitlin.
To help Max prepare for the first day, his mum has ordered him a new hat, t-shirt and drink bottle.
It’s hard to say exactly how Max is feeling about kindergarten, but he’s comfortable being around other children and educators, having attended day care since he was about 12 months old. His parents are looking forward to joining a welcoming community and seeing Max thrive.
‘Based off our previous experience, we know kinder is fantastic for emotional growth and language development, and we’re looking forward to seeing Max grow over the coming year, although he’ll always be our baby.’
Welcome to your new year of learning, Max and the many other children embarking on a similar journey. Find information and resources to help your child get ready for kinder in 2025 at A new year of learning.
