Topic: Blaze of Glory
Welcome to Nursery and Reception. We are all looking forward to an exciting Autumn term, where we can work together to make this a happy time in your child’s education.
This term our topic is Blaze of Glory. We will be dividing our topic into two sections. This half term we will focusing learning all about ourselves and how we can use our values to share, play and be kind to one another. The second half term we will be focusing on the fire service and health and safety. Alongside our topic work we will have a special letter and number of the week.
We will be doing lots of fun, multi-sensory activities with messy play opportunities and outdoor learning. Our independent learning activities (EPIC) will be themed around our focus rhyme of the week. During the week all children will have multiple opportunities to visit the different zones in the classroom as well as outside.
During collective worship we will take turns to create our own prayers to God. We will read and retell stories from the bible. Our values this term are Courage and Trust.
Thank you for your support,
Mrs Sears-Neale, Mrs Tucker, Miss Lai and Mrs Taylor and Miss James
