Staff in our phase
Mrs Stone and Mrs Barker are the class teachers in the EYFS.
.Mrs Skinner, Mrs Sackett and Mrs Smith also help us with our learning.
How we learn
In the EYFS we are always busy. We like to explore and learn through our play. We love having visitors into our classroom and going on adventures and trips.
Our day includes a Phonics session, where we are learning about letters and the sounds that they make. We use Bug Club phonics to help us. We have Number sessions, and we spend lots of time listening to stories and enjoying books.
During the day we spend time outside in the EYFS garden, travelling to far away places in our pirate ship, making a delicious lunch in our mud kitchen, construction castles, making waterways, climbing and sometimes looking for minibeasts in the garden. We love to be outside, no matter what the weather is like. We always have our wellington boots and coats with us.
We take part in regular PE sessions and also visit Forest School on a regular basis. In the woods we climb trees, explore the woodland, look after the animals that live there and have lots of time to work together. This term we have been building fires for cooking and keeping warm.
Our learning is supported by the adults and by our friends as we all learn together.
We have lots of fun and have lots of smiles.

During this topic we will be settling into school and getting to know each other.
