EYFS

Welcome to Reception!

🐝 Busy Bees 🐝

Welcome to our exciting EYFS adventure! We are so looking forward to getting to know you and your children and sharing all the wonderful experiences that Reception has to offer.

Our classroom is a place to learn, grow, explore and have fun. Through play, curiosity and hands-on experiences, we will encourage every child to become a confident, independent learner who is excited to discover the world around them.

There will be lots of opportunities to make friends, ask questions, get creative, solve problems, try new things and celebrate our successes along the way.

We can't wait to see where our learning adventures take us! 🌈✨🐝

Our Curriculum

Reception class follow the Statutory Early Years Framework which outlines a curriculum of 7 interconnected 'areas of learning'. Throughout the school day we are involved in activities and experiences which are based on these areas of learning and development:

 

The Prime Areas of Learning:

  • Communication and Language

  • Physical Development

  • Personal and Social Development

The Specific Areas of Learning:

  • Literacy 

  • Mathematics

  • Understanding the World

  • Expressive Arts and Design

 

Within the EYFS curriculum children are encouraged and supported to be independent learners. The 'characteristics of effective learning' describe the ways in which children are actively involved in their own learning and personal development. 

 

Characteristics of Effective Learning

  • Playing and Exploring

  • Active Learning

  • Creating and Thinking Critically
