    Welcome to EYFS!  

    Our Early Years Department consists of a Little Explorers room for ages 2-3, a Nursery room for ages 3-4, and two Reception classes, each led by qualified Teachers/Early Years practitioner and supported by Teaching Assistants and apprentices.

    Our NEW Little Explorers room for 2-3 year olds is a home from home environment, where each child is valued, provided with the highest quality care, and where every day is full of exciting opportunities and experiences to explore.

    Homework will be set every week (on a Friday) via Class dojo with a focus on an area of the EYFS curriculum (PSED, Physical, Communication and Language, Literacy, Maths EAD, UTW). You can return the homework by the following Friday via Class dojo so we can see it. If you require paper copies of the homework, if appropriate, please just let us know. We would also encourage you to read at home with your child at least 3 times a week and practise their phonics sounds with them on a regular basis using the Supersonic Phonic friends Newsletter.
