Willow

Welcome to Willow Class

We follow the Early Years Foundation Stage which focuses on seven areas of learning and development: Personal, Social and Emotional, Communication and Language, Physical, Literacy, Mathematics, Understanding the World and Expressive Arts and Design. In Willow Class, much of the children’s learning is through play. They are encouraged to explore the open-ended resources in the environment, developing their interests, imagination and independence. Throughout the week, children also take part in small group teacher directed activities to consolidate or extend their knowledge.

As we settle into school we will be getting to know our new friends and what makes us all special. We will be talking about our families and our pets. We will also be exploring the signs of autumn, and different festivals such as Harvest and Diwali. More information can be found on the curriculum update below

PE will be on a Monday and a Thursday. Please can children come into school wearing their PE kit on these days.

Reading books will be changed on a Tuesday and a Friday. Please keep your child’s reading book and diary in their book bag and sign it each time you hear your child read.

Please log on to your child’s Tapestry account to find out more about what they have been doing.

Some websites you may find useful to support your child with their learning:
