Current Term
Our topic this term is nursery ryhmes and fairy tales. These timeless classics not only captivate young imaginations but also play a crucial role in early phonics development. Learning nursery rhymes helps children become familiar with sounds, rhythms and patterns, laying a strong foundation for thier literacy journey.
Our daily routines will continue to include phonics fun, engaging in interactive activities to support early reading and listening skills. Numeracy activities including hands-on games and challenges to develop counting, sorting and problem solving.
To help children regulate their energy levels and improve focus, we run a daily sensory circuit. This structured series of activities is designed to stimulate and calm the senses, supporting children's physical and emotional development. The sensory circuit not only helps children develop motor skills but also boosts their confidence, attention and abillity to engage in activities.
