Struggling to come to school?

The “School Day Ready” campaign is designed to support parents in establishing routines that make their school life smoother and more enjoyable. Through targeted Facebook posts, this campaign provides practical tips for managing morning routines, night-before preparations, healthy evening habits, and homework routines.
