EYFS 2025 - 2026

Welcome to Foundation Stage!

Welcome Back to School!

We are delighted to welcome all our children and families back to school. We hope everyone had a restful and enjoyable break, and we are looking forward to another exciting term of learning together.

This term, our learning will focus on Traditional Tales. We will be immersing ourselves in much-loved stories including The Gingerbread Man, The Three Little Pigs, and Goldilocks and the Three Bears. These familiar tales provide rich opportunities to develop language, imagination, creativity, and early literacy skills.

Throughout the term, the children will:

• Explore a range of creative crafts inspired by the stories

• Take part in engaging role-play activities to retell and reimagine key events

• Learn and perform songs connected to each tale

• Build vocabulary and confidence through storytelling and discussion

A few important reminders to help each school day run smoothly:

• Please ensure your child brings a water bottle to school every day.
• Book bags should also be brought to school daily, as they are essential for reading books and school communications.
• We kindly ask that you read with your child every night, as regular reading at home makes a significant difference to their confidence and progress.

Finally, we are always happy to answer quick questions at the classroom door. However, if you have something more in depth you would like to discuss, please ring the school office to arrange a suitable time for a longer conversation. This helps ensure we can give your query the time and attention it deserves.

Thank you for your continued support. We look forward to a positive and productive term ahead.

The EYFS Team.
