Helping
at Home

Understanding the Catalyst Program, and giving you the tools to further enhance your child’s learning journey beyond the classroom.

At Home

Enhancing your child’s learning journey

Catalyst is designed to give your child the best opportunity to learn and thrive in a positive, safe, and supportive environment.

To further enhance your child’s learning journey, we’ve curated a selection of activities that you can easily implement at home. These activities are designed to reinforce classroom learning, nurture curiosity, and support their overall development, making learning a positive and enriching experience.

Reading at home

Encourage daily reading and help them explain what they learnt or enjoyed in the book. For younger children, ask them to read aloud to you

Sharing learning

Encourage your child to talk about a topic, idea, or skill they have learnt at school and ask detailed questions

Build Vocabulary

Help your child learn new words by using tricky and complex words, explaining what they mean and how they can use them

Ask your child’s teachers

Your child’s teacher can provide specific support and advice for learning at home

What can I do?

Catalyst has been developed to provide your child with the very best opportunity to learn and thrive in a positive, safe, and supportive environment. We encourage you to discuss how to best support your specific child’s learning at home with their classroom teacher. The approach you take at home will often change depending on each child’s age and learning needs.
