About the Book

Are you thinking of enrolling your child in school? You might have heard the term 'school-readiness' - but what does it mean? Starting school is a big step for children and parents, and it can be hard to know where to start. Experienced primary school principal Andrew Oberthur provides an accessible roadmap for you and your child to make a successful move into primary school. Andrew couples his experience with knowledge from some of Australia's leading educators and parenting experts to show you how to get your child school-ready. Full of communication tips, insights into how schools operate and advice on navigating potential issues, this book also explores current topics like remote learning and appropriate uses of technology to prepare you for the full extent of your child's primary school journey.

Review :
A strong resource for parents and teachers! I'll certainly be recommending it on my school travels."" - Madonna King, journalist and author of Ten-Ager ""I think the trio of key concepts—trust-collaboration-enquiry is dynamite. I found this very helpful for any relationship."" - Steve Biddulph, psychologist and author of Raising Boys and Raising Girls ""The warm, reassuring, and personal advice from Andrew in his book is extremely helpful. We are not all created expert parents and it is good to know how to make decisions at this time. A lot of parents I know fret about the decisions."" - Dr Matthew McLean, parent ""Starting school is an exciting, yet daunting time for children transitioning from kindergarten to primary school. Equally, parents also go through a similar transition, with mixed emotions of anxiety and joy knowing their child will foster new friendships and enter a new learning environment. Andrew Oberthur's book is aimed at squashing some of those trepidations and understanding your role as a parent to collaborate with the teachers and the Principal."" Richard and Katrina Kretschmer, parents
