Starting school is an important milestone for both children and parents. It marks the transition from the familiar environment of nursery to a new educational setting, full of challenges and opportunities.

To support families preparing for this step, Avenor is organizing a special workshop on November 28th, from 10:00 AM to 12:00 PM, designed specifically for nursery parents whose children will start school next autumn. This event aims to address parents’ questions and curiosities, which are perfectly normal at this stage.

What Will You Learn at the Workshop?

For children aged 5 and 6, starting school involves much more than simply acquiring books, notebooks, uniforms, and backpacks.

It is a major change that can influence their self-confidence, well-being, academic performance, and adaptability. Managing this transition properly and preparing for this new beginning is essential, and parents play a crucial role in providing their children with a confident and enthusiastic start.

“From a psychological perspective, the transition from nursery to school also considers you, the parents. This involves your own school-day memories—such as uniforms, ribbons, badges, and backpacks—alongside the hopes and aspirations you hold for your children, who are approaching this milestone for the first time and can only envision what lies ahead. It also encompasses the expertise of primary school teachers, who will guide and welcome the children as they embark on this new chapter.

Together, these elements come together in a cohesive and supportive way to facilitate a seamless transition from nursery to school.” says Ioana Botez, Counselor at Avenor Nursery and one of the event hosts.

How to Register?

To participate, please complete the registration form. 

Attendance is free, but places are limited, and priority will be given to parents who register early. The event is open to all parents interested in the workshop’s topic.

Why Should You Attend?

For many parents, the transition from nursery to school comes with questions and uncertainties: Is my child ready to go to school? What are the school’s expectations? How can I help them integrate? 

The workshop brings together educational leaders and counselors from the Avenor team, who will share valuable insights based on their experience guiding students through this transition.

Their perspective will be complemented by the experiences of a few parents who have already gone through this stage. These parents have been invited to the event as guest speakers to share their personal stories.

Through this panel discussion, we aim to address the questions of parents attending the event, offering practical advice and solutions to facilitate the transition from nursery to school.
