Soar in Year 4 - Virtual Information Session

What skills and experiences help prepare children for the years ahead?

Year 4 is a turning point. As children move into Upper Primary, habits of independence, curiosity and confidence begin to take hold which lay the foundations they'll draw on for the rest of primary school and beyond.

So, what actually prepares a child well for this next stage?

Join Kate Soady - Learning Leader, and Allan Greatrix - Year 4 Level Coordinator, for a free live webinar exploring the skills and experiences that set children up for Upper Primary and beyond and how these are nurtured through inquiry-based learning at John Paul College.

In this live session, you will discover:

• The key skills and experiences that help prepare children for this next stage of learning

• What changes for children as they enter Year 4, and how they grow into more curious, capable and engaged learners

• How independence is built through student agency, while giving children the support they need to grow

• How confidence develops through inquiry, challenge and real opportunity

• Practical ways you can support your child as they grow in confidence and independence at home

You'll also have the opportunity to ask questions during a live Q&A.

Whether your child is approaching Year 4 or you're simply thinking ahead this is a chance to see what genuinely prepares children well for what's next.
