Back to school:
It’s that time of year again… back to school! 6 weeks always goes by so quickly. The end of summer marks the beginning of a new school year, bringing excitement, anticipation, and a bit of stress for both parents and children. As the first day approaches, ensuring that your children are organised and ready to get back into their routine can set the tone for a successful year.
Consistency is key to developing good habits. Start adjusting bedtime and wake-up routines a week or two before school starts. Create a daily schedule that includes homework, extracurricular activities, and free time. A predictable routine helps children know what to expect and manage their time better, meaning the first day back comes as less of a shock!
Involving your children in organising ahead of the school year can increase their sense of responsibility and ownership. Let them help with shopping for school supplies and picking out their clothes for the first day. Discuss and set goals for the upcoming school year together, and plan for how to achieve them. This collaborative approach can make them feel more invested in their education.
Go through last year’s school supplies and see what can be reused. Declutter any unnecessary items to make room for new ones. Organise supplies in a way that makes them easily accessible. Labelling notebooks, folders, and other items can help children find what they need quickly—preventing those early morning scrambles to find shoes and bags.
Getting your children organised for going back to school involves more than just supplies and clothes. Creating a supportive environment, establishing routines, and encouraging good habits that will help them succeed throughout the school year can help ease everyone back into the routine of school after 6 weeks of fun. Here’s to a fantastic school year ahead!
