We understand that your child is precious and a gift from God and that leaving them in our care can be a little upsetting, particularly at the start of the year. Rest assured that we will love, cherish and care for your child each and everyday. Try to encourage your child to grow in their independence as the term develops and encourage them to enter school without parental support. Staff will be available on the playground every morning from 8:45 to discuss any news for the day.
'We love because God first loved us.'
1 John 4:19
Autumn 2020
Welcome back to a new, slightly different, school year. In Robins this term our theme is 'Firefighters to the rescue', to closely link with our friends in class 2. We will look at fireman Sam, how they do their jobs, the tools they need, how they help people, how they have changed over the years, our local fire service and famous fires. Alongside this theme we will be using child intiated ideas to help plan our learning in all developmental areas. After half term we will move into looking at light and Christmas, with our theme being Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star.
Prime areas
Personal, social and emotional development
Physical development
Communication and language
Specific areas
Literacy
Mathematics
Understanding the world
Expressive arts and design
All of our learning and play will be structured, meaningful and exciting. We love to be creative and use our imagination when exploring the different areas inside and outside the classroom. Our outdoor area has lots of exciting things to do.
Phonics and reading
As Robin's we are starting to learn how different sounds have different meanings, sometimes that could be recognising different sounds in our environment (phase 1) or the different phonemes and graphemes we use to read and spell words (phase 2+). We will have discrete phonics sessions at least once a day for all children.
