 Top Tips to Support Reading at Home

Welcome to the Early Years web page.

This year the Early Years team consists of Mr Cooke, Mrs Palmer, Miss Hibbert, Miss Fay and Mrs Daubney.

Early Years will be having PE on a Tuesday and a Friday. Please can children come into school wearing their PE kits on these days.

We also regularly visit Green Zone. Remember to have a look at Tapestry to see what we get up to.

We have provided an insight into what is happening in school for your child and a general overview of the key information you need to know. You will find more detail on what your child will be learning on the Curriculum pages on the website and via the termly newsletters.
