 We have a lovely area for learning, the children are able to access the classroom, conservatory and outside area during child-initiated learning. We access the outside area during all weathers so please ensure that your child has a pair of wellies and a waterproof coat in school.

We do P.E. on a Friday and on P.E. days children can come into school wearing their P.E. kit. Please ensure your child has their white t-shirt, black shorts or tracksuit bottoms and black jumper or school jumper. Hair should be tied up and jewellery removed on this day so that they are ready and safe to take part. We will also visit the school's library on a Friday morning where the children will be able to choose a book to take home and share with family members. 

We ask that you try and read at home with your child at least three times a week and record this in their purple reading diary, this will help them earn their Reading Champion badges.

We follow Development Matters scheme, first of all focussing on the prime areas of development, before working on the specific areas and then the Early Learning Goals. Practical, fun and engaging tasks are planned for the children to access during their play and when working with an adult.

We plan a wide range of opportunities for children to learn through fun, hands on experiences in both adult led and child initiated activities.

Our Super 6

Here are our Super 6 stories and rhymes that the children will experience over the course of each term. In Hedgehogs we use a scheme called Talk for Writing, where the children will read a story as a class, learn the text and then change the elements of the story to make it their own.
