EYFS Transition Activities

EYFS Transition Activities

Our EYFS transition activities help young pupils feel confident about moving into a new classroom or year group. These resources include reflection tasks, creative activities and simple discussion prompts that support children as they prepare for change.

Teachers can use these activities during transition days, the final weeks of term or the first week back to help children become familiar with their new learning environment and build confidence about the year ahead.

Transition Activities for Early Years

Moving into a new classroom can feel exciting but also unfamiliar for young pupils. Well planned EYFS transition activities help children understand what to expect and feel secure as they begin the next stage of school.

These resources include reflection tasks, creative activities and simple ‘All About Me’ discussions that help teachers learn more about their new pupils. Activities like classroom tours, drawing tasks and discussion prompts encourage children to talk about their feelings and build positive relationships with their teacher and classmates.

Teachers planning transition lessons may also find our wider collection of transition activities for EYFS, KS1 and KS2 helpful when preparing pupils for the next school year.
