Welcome to Spring Term in Pre-School

We are now in our second term and are excited for another fun-filled term of learning and exploration in Pre-School.

We will continue to strive to make you child’s first experience in education special, continuing to develop their relationship with their Class Teacher and Learning Support Assistants, who will support them and ensure that their emotional and academic needs are met daily.

As always, our aim is for your children to become happy and confident learners and to carry their love of learning throughout their life.

Spring Bookshelf

Each term, our curriculum will be inspired by our Curriculum Bookshelf which is filled with high quality, engaging texts chosen by our team.

Our Spring Bookshelf is filled with high-quality, engaging texts and is very much inspired by growth – both the growth of the things around us – plants and animals, but also of ourselves. Through this term we will encourage the growth of new skills and resilience and explore the idea of not giving up, even if things get a bit tricky. We will also explore different events and celebrations.

Character Traits

Each term, through our Curriculum Bookshelf we will focus on learning about, identifying and embodying our six character traits which will support our learning across the curriculum and support our Personal, Social and Emotional development.
