Our Autumn 1 topic - Nursery Rhymes

We support the children to settle into school and carry out a baseline assessment. This allows us to gain knowledge of the children's starting points to then develop their learning. We look a variety of nursery rhymes which are familiar to the children, linking their previous knowledge and experiences. 

Autumn 2- On Sudden Hill and Christmas. 

Our focus books are On Sudden Hill and  Dear Santa.

We share the story of Birt and Etho - two friends who make amazing creations from a cardboard box. We also use our imaginations to make boxes into our own amazing creations.

We celebrate Christmas with the children and discuss the Nativity story and perform the Nativity play for our parents. We also write letters to Santa and walk to the post office to post them.
