In addition to our well-resourced classroom, the children’s learning opportunities and experiences are extended through the newly developed outside classroom area. Our outdoor environment means that we can offer a range of exciting activities both inside and outside.

We continuously monitor children’s progress and success toward the Early Learning Goals. In addition, we share children’s achievements and challenges with parents through our online learning platform, Seesaw.

In Reception, we begin our work on phonics straight away. Then, through our phonics programme Read Write Inc, children will quickly learn lots of new sounds, which they will then practise using their sound blending books.

Reading is essential, and children are given books to take home matched to our phonics scheme. Alongside a school reading book, our children choose a ‘library’ book from our library basket to share with their families.

Our youngest children enjoy being introduced in a supportive and gentle way to the subjects they will study as they move through school. We cover Science, Geography, History, Art, Design Technology, Religious Education and Music.
