This half term we are going to be....

We will be learning how caterpillars grow and

how they change into butterflies.

We will be talking about how we grow up too, how we learn new things and how change makes us feel.

We have got lots of clever creative ideas for making our own minibeasts! 

I wander if Jigsaw Jenie knows anything about

minibeasts and where they like to live?

             Perhaps he will do some investigating with his friend Crunchie.

                         Maybe we could take them on a minibeast hunt!

Remember.....It's good to keep talking - 

Set aside that 5 minutes a day to share a rhyme or a story book or just

simply have a chat... because it's important to talk and life has changed

a lot recently for everyone.

Put technology to one side for a while and encourage a 2 way conversation

with your child about anything they are interested in or

might want to talk about. Young children need to constantly hear conversations and engage in them to be able to learn how to speak to others confidently

and extend their vocabulary.

Early Adopter School

We have started this school year with an exciting change for our 'Early Years Foundation Stage'. The government released two new documents  of 'Curriculum Guidance' for the 'Early Years Foundation Stage' and 'Development matters' in September 2021.

Our school has opted in to be an ‘Early adopter’ of this new guidance and will be piloting the 'New Early Learning Goals'. Those schools who are not early adopters will follow this guidance from September 2021.
