Supporting your Child
Together may we give our children the roots to grow and the wings to fly.
Your Child's Development
The first five years of your child's life are vital for their future development and learning. During this time they develop so much and learn lots of new skills. Whether you are a first time parent or this is your third child it can hard to know exactly what is expected of your child. The Department of education has published a guide to help parents to know what they should expect of their child at each age along with helpful tips on how to support your child in achieving these milestones.
