Prep Ready Set Go! Prep Readiness Program

Prep Readiness Program in Brisbane and the Gold Coast, to support your childs development as they transition into Prep

Research shows that building key skills early sets the foundation for a successful school experience. Our six-session program, led by a qualified Occupational Therapist, focuses on developing crucial skills to prepare your child for school, across the following areas.

Social Skills

Learning to play, share, and take turns builds friendships and helps children feel part of the group. Developing these skills supports positive classroom behaviour, emotional regulation, and the ability to work and learn alongside others.

Independence Skills

Simple self-care tasks like dressing, toileting, managing lunchboxes, and organising belongings foster confidence and reduce anxiety in the classroom. These everyday skills also help teachers support your child’s learning, not their routines.

Communication Skills

Clear communication allows children to express needs, ask questions, and follow instructions – essential for successful learning and social participation. Our OTs help build both expressive and receptive language through play and interactive activities.

Fine Motor Skills

Strong hand and finger control supports writing, drawing, cutting, and manipulating small objects. By refining grip strength, coordination, and dexterity, children gain the precision needed for school tasks.

Gross Motor Skills

Posture, balance, and coordination underpin everything from sitting at a desk to navigating the playground. Developing these whole-body movements helps children maintain focus, build stamina, and enjoy active play.

Cognitive Skills

Early problem-solving, attention, and memory skills support learning and adaptability. Strengthening these abilities helps children listen, follow routines, and transition smoothly between activities.
