Reception Transition visits

Once families enroll at Munno Para Primary School, they will receive a letter outlining our Reception transition visit program. Transition visits are designed to help children and their families become familiar with our school environment and routines. For children starting Reception mid-year, visits take place in Term 2 during Weeks 7, 8, and 9. For those starting at the beginning of the school year, visits are held in Term 4 during Weeks 5, 6, and 7. These sessions provide valuable opportunities for children to meet staff, make new friends, and begin building a positive connection to our school community.
