We’re back for the 2026 school year! In Episode 6 of the LNPS Podcast, we officially welcome our families back and share key updates for the term ahead. We introduce our newest staff members, extend a warm welcome to our brand new Reception students and their families, and reflect on the highlights from our recent Building Connections Night.

Starting Strong in Reception is a short podcast series that helps families and children feel confident, prepared, and excited for their first year of school. Each short episode shares simple tips, reassuring insights, and practical ideas to make the transition smooth and positive.

Episode 1- Holiday routines for school readiness

In this episode, we welcome two LNPS old scholars, Ananya and Nicholas, who return to share their real-life experiences of transitioning from Year 6 to Year 7. Speaking directly to our senior students, they unpack what high school is really like, from navigating new routines and subjects, to making new friends, managing homework, and settling into a bigger school environment.

Their honest advice, tips, and stories give current LNPS students a clearer picture of what to expect, what challenges might come up, and how exciting this next chapter can be.

Tune in for a supportive, relatable guide to starting high school.
