 Kindergarten teachers create a transition statement for each child enrolled in a kindergarten program at the end of the year. The transition statement:

• helps ensure your child has a positive start to school
• summarises your child's learning and development at the end of the kindergarten year
• contains valuable information, such as your child's strengths and interests, and suggestions for support to transition to school
• is given to you when it is completed.

The QCAA encourages kindergarten teachers to work with you and your child to complete the transition statement.

This is the first of two forms you will receive that provide you with an opportunity to participate in the transition statement process to support your child's transition to school. In this form, you are asked to consent to your child's kindergarten creating a transition statement for your child in a secure online application provided by the Queensland Curriculum and Assessment Authority (QCAA). If you do not give consent for the transition statement to be created in the online application, your child will receive a transition statement created in the alternative QCAA Microsoft Word template.

We ask that you please fill out the attached form and return via email as soon as possible.

We have obligations under law to provide a healthy, hygienic learning environment, however, sooner or later children get sick, so please be prepared and have a contingency plan should illness occur e.g. arrange a standby carer.
