Our Pre-School children have really thrived since moving into their new classroom at the start of the Summer Term. It has been wonderful to see their confidence, independence and enthusiasm for learning grow as they prepare for their transition to Reception in September.
Our carefully designed environment encourages children to make choices, access resources independently and take ownership of their learning. Through daily routines and child-led activities, they have developed valuable problem-solving, teamwork and self-management skills.
A particular favourite has been the Playdough Crate, where children independently create their own playdough, developing fine motor skills, perseverance and a real sense of achievement.
The children have made the most of our beautiful school grounds, enjoying outdoor learning, monthly Forest School sessions and adventures on the low ropes course. These experiences have helped build resilience, confidence and a willingness to embrace new challenges.
Being located next to the Reception classroom has also provided a seamless introduction to school life, helping children become familiar with the environment, staff and routines they will experience next year.
Across their specialist lessons, the children have made fantastic progress. From developing balance and coordination in gymnastics, to performing with confidence in music, learning about sustainability through gardening, and enjoying French lessons alongside Reception, they have embraced every opportunity with enthusiasm.
As Sports Day approaches, excitement is building, and it has been heartwarming to see older pupils cheering on our youngest learners during practice sessions. These moments help strengthen their confidence and sense of belonging within our school community.
We are incredibly proud of everything our Pre-School children have achieved this year and look forward to watching them continue to flourish as they begin their Reception journey in September.
