Induction Week 2 Monday 15th-Friday 19th September.
This week the children will get to know the routines of the school day, including the lunchtime routine.
They will continue to explore the classroom environment and the playground. The children will have the opportunity to share their experiences at home, as well as their special things.
We will be carrying out some assessments, name recognition and name writing, and also a scissor skills assessment.
We will have our first 'Drawing Club' introduction session. This is the approach we use for literacy which engages children with the pleasure of stories and drawing, developing narrative understanding, enhancing vocabulary and sparking creativity and their imagination.
On Friday, the children will be introduced to the Forest School site and learn the about rules, boundaries and hazards, as well as exploring the natural world.
Induction Week Monday 8th-Friday12th September 2025
We are feeling very excited to welcome the new children to school this week and they will attend every morning from 8.45am-12pm. They will learn about the entering school routine and about what they will be expected to do independently every morning. We will take photos of the routines for you to look at and discuss with your child at home.
In Class 1, the children will have the opportunity to discover, explore and play in the different areas indoors and outdoors; learning how to select and use resources and return them to the right place when they have finished with them, or at tidy up time.
They will begin to get to know each other and the layout of the room, including the toilet. Please help your child to be independent with toileting and hand washing.
We will observe and chat with the children to get to know them better. We will share stories, songs and rhymes and games that help us to get to know each other too. Please share lots of nursery rhymes together at home; see video below.
