Term 1
Topic - All about me
We will spend the first term building relationships and getting to know each other. We will create lots of opportunities for children to play and chat to both adults and their peers. This will allow us to find out all about the children's likes and dislikes, make new friends and explore new tasks. We will finish the term with a Talent show!!
Maths - Just Like Me
We will be sorting and noticing objects. How items can be sorted into different groups, using lots of natural items in the outside area.
Phonics - Read Write Inc.
The children will be learning to recognise and write Set 1 sounds. We will learn a new sound each day. The children will practice orally blending sounds ready to blend sounds to read. The children will learn rhymes to assist them in forming letters correctly.
We would like to introduce the staff who work within Bunnies class. The Class Teacher is Mrs Tory and we have Mrs Machin and Mr Woods who are Teaching Assistants.
Our school year begins on Wednesday 3rd September and the school gates open at 8.40am, please ensure all children have arrived by 8.50am for the Register.
To settle children in the first week we will finish at 12.30pm after lunch, children are to be collected from their classroom door. Please be patient as we get to know Parents/Carers collecting.
From Monday 8th September the children will be in school full-time 8.40am-3.20pm. Collection at the end of the day will be from the EYFS gate leading to the KS1 playground. Enter via the gate at the right of the school site. Please collect chidlren promptly as children can become easily upset if not collected on time.
All of our information is relayed via the Seesaw app and an invitation will be given to each child the first week of school. This is an online platform that can be accessed via a mobile phone, tablet or computer.
We use the app to post photographs, videos and examples of learning in school. We also use the app as a way of communicating with families about events and changes so it is really important to join so that you are equipped with all the information you need for your child.
Families have found it very supportive in communicating with their child about their time in school.
We look forward to meeting again after the Summer and please if you have any queries please don't hesitate to ask.
