Welcome to the page for Foundation Stage.

The Foundation Stage is lots of fun and we learn through play. It is always quite lively. This age is very special- we love it. There is a balance of child initiated and adult directed activities. Every child is taught at the level that they are at. We are very lucky as we have a large classroom with an adjoining soft play area. In the soft play area we have construction and roleplay. We also have an outside classroom. 

The school grounds are lovely. We have a vegetable patch and beautiful willow tunnel and our own small school woods that we can use for all sorts of learning. We are also very lucky as we have a larger wood very close by and are able to use it as a teaching resource.

Every day there is some form of Numeracy and Literacy activity although it is always cross curricular and not always taught in isolation. We also teach phonics everyday, following the Read Write Inc. Scheme. 

Thankyou.
