Induction Week Monday 9th-Friday 13th September 2024
On Monday, Tuesday & Wednesday your child will be attending school for a 2 hour 15 minute induction session in a small group, either in the morning or the afternoon. They will learn about the entering school routine; what they will be expected to do independently every morning. Please help your child by talking through this routine at home, using the slides below.
During the induction sessions, the children will have the opportunity to explore and play in the different areas of the classroom, indoors and outdoors; to select and use resources and to 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. However, there will be explicit teaching of good hygiene procedures in school. Please help your child by watching the NHS handwashing video below.
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.
We will meet together as a whole class on Thursday, and the children will need their PE kits.
On the afternoon of Friday 15th, we will have our introduction to Forest School session, and the children will need their Forest School bag- a big supermarket shopper is the best! Please see the information presentation about Forest School, which lists the items needed.
