This is Me - Back to School Resource (Kindy & Primary Children)

An Advocacy Guide for Neurodiverse Kids & Their Families

Build a bridge of understanding between your child and the important adults in their life. This booklet is designed to be filled out by parents and children together, acting as a positive conversation starter rather than a test. It empowers children to share their unique personality, strengths, and specific needs, ensuring they feel seen and heard in new environments.

What’s Inside:

Educational Context: Clear explanations of neurodiversity, including the overlaps between ADHD and Autism, to help caregivers understand the "why" behind behaviors.

"All About Me" Profiles: engaging sections for the child to record their passions, hyperfocus interests, and things that make them proud.

Support Strategies: Dedicated pages to outline what the child finds hard and what helps them—broken down specifically for "In the Classroom" and "At Home".

Wellbeing Indicators: A guide to help adults recognize what the child looks like when they feel safe versus when they are overwhelmed or struggling.

Best For: Parents and caregivers preparing for a new school year, new teachers, or support workers.
