MORAYFIELD, Australia - AussieJournal -- It's important for children to develop independence. Let's look at why it matters, and what you can do to help them achieve it.

In a classroom environment, teachers support many children at once. When children can manage their basic needs independently, they often feel more settled and ready to engage in learning. It also reduces stress and builds resilience when they face small challenges throughout the day.

Children with strong self-help skills tend to:

*Adapt more easily to routines
*Show greater confidence in new situations
*Navigate social interactions more smoothly
*Experience a stronger sense of autonomy and pride.

How We Encourage It

At ACE Academy, we embed opportunities for independence throughout the day in a calm, encouraging way. Our educators build independence into everyday routines, encouraging children to pack their bags, put on their shoes, tidy up and manage their lunchboxes. Children are gently supported to "have a go", which builds confidence and problem-solving skills.

*Let your child practise dressing and packing their bag
*Use lunch containers they can open on their own
*Encourage toileting independence with support and patience.

These small steps at home can make a big difference at school.

Building Confidence One Step at a Time

Supporting children to develop independence isn't about pushing them to grow up too fast, it's about giving them the tools and confidence they need to feel secure and capable in a school setting.

Independence is a cornerstone of school readiness. When children can confidently take care of themselves in small ways, they are more prepared to take on the big new world of school.
