Welcome to the Foundation Stage Page!

This term our topic is

Feathers, Fur or Scales?

This term the children have chosen a topic all about animals.

We will be finding out about different animals and their habitats.

We will learn about different pets, what they need and how we take care of them.

At Forest School and in the school grounds we will learn about the wildlife

in local habitats and micro habitats!

We will listen to Stories of Creation and learn how different religions celebrate,

and care for, the world we live in.

Stories will include Dear Zoo, The Hare and the Tortoise and The Hungry Caterpillar.

Our Jigsaw theme for term 5 is Relationships and our collective worship theme is Truth and Honesty.

Please remember to send your child with a water bottle, outdoor shoes and a sun hat every day. 

Please make sure your child has suncream on or brings a named bottle into school to apply before going outside.

They will also need wellies if the weather is wet or for playing in the sand or mud kitchen.
