Nursery Curriculum
The children follow a structured timetable (see below) and are given the opportunity to access enrichening activities that follow the new EYFS curriculum. The learning environment is planned according to half termly topics which seek to develop children's core skills of:
- communication and language.
- physical development
- personal, social and emotional development.
In addition to this, the children access maths, literacy, art and science through structured carpet input and ongoing provisions in their learning environment.
Below, you will find information on our termly topics and WOW days. We choose a story every two weeks (except from All About Authors topic where we look at a different biography each week) that links to the topic, activities and teaching is planned around the topic-related stories. Please click on the topic icons below to see what your child is learning about in school.
