Me and My Community

This project supports children with settling into the new rules and routines of school life. It encourages them to make new friends and feel confident in their class. It teaches children about being helpful, kind and thoughtful at home and at school. This project also teaches children how they are unique and special, the importance of friendship and how people in their family, school and local community are important and can help them.

Exploring Autumn

This project teaches children about the natural changes that happen during the season of Autumn, including how the weather changes, why trees lose their leaves and how wild animals prepare for winter.

What an amazing first half term we have had. The children settled in very quickly to their new class and we have loved making new friends and learning together. During the term the children have had an opportunity to explore the different communities they belong to and talk freely about their families and their interests. We have learned about people who help us in our community and how we can help others. We have enjoyed watching the season change into Autumn and have explored what this means in our environment. We have enjoyed learning about animals that hibernate and other ways animals prepare for the cold winter months ahead. We carried out an investigation to find out which foods would store best and last the squirrels over the winter. Please enjoy looking at our picture gallery of the amazing work we have done this term.
