Welcome to the Foundation Phase

 

In the Foundation Phase we work as a unit.  The children have free access

to two classrooms and a purpose built outside area.  Each morning they start

off in their base rooms and then complete a range of activities in each area

throughout the day with different members of staff.

Language and Play sessions

 

We are holding Language and Play sessions once a week in our Nursery.

 

The sessions are for anyone who has a child who will be three years old

 

before September.  The purpose of the sessions are to enable you and your

 

child to come and meet our staff as well as other parents and their children.

 

Additionally, you will be able to enjoy our wonderful Foundation Phase

 

setting whilst carrying out fun and non threatening language based activities

 

with your child.

 

 

Children who have come into school regularly before they begin Nursery,

 

often find it easier to settle as they are already familiar with their

 

surroundings. It is also reassuring for you to get to know a little bit about us

 

before your child begins Nursery.

 

 

You are still welcome to come to the sessions even if you have not yet

 

decided upon your child’s Nursery placement.

 

 

If you are interested please contact Mrs. Rowley for more details on

 

01656 815660. We look forward to hearing from you.

 

 

Jolly Phonics information

 

 

After our successful parents evening to introduce the 'Jolly Phonics'

 

scheme we have provided a link to the Jolly Phonics site and some

 

useful information, we hope it is of some help.  If you have any queries

 

about 'Jolly Phonics' and the approaches used please come and ask a

 

member of staff.

Our visit to Cardiff Wales International Airport

 

As part of our theme during the last part of the summer half term we visited

Cardiff Wales International Airport.  We had to check in at the ticket desk

and then went on a trip around the Airport.  We also went to see how

important the Fire and Rescue team in the airport and were lucky enough

to experience the different pieces of equipment and transport first hand.
