EYFS

Week beginning 16/05/2025

This week, we’ve been continuing our exciting topic on People Who Help Us! The children loved exploring the different roles of helpful people in our community – from doctors and firefighters to postal workers and teachers.

As part of our Let’s Explore activities, we’ve had so much fun dressing up and role-playing as the people who help us every day.

Worship theme of the week:

Ascension Day 29th May 

Mark 16:19   

So then the Lord Jesus, after he had spoken to them, was taken up into heaven and sat down at the right hand of God.   

John 3:13   

No one has ascended into heaven except he who descended from heaven, the Son of Man.  

Curriculum this week:  

Please note that our curriculum overview for this term is at the bottom of the page.

  • Phonics: We will be recapping the sounds we have learnt so far.

  • Literacy: We will be writing information posters/fact files. 

  • Maths:  We will explore the reason for the position of numbers on a number track.

  • Topic: We will be looking at Dentist.

     

Word of the week:

Our Word of the Week for this week is 'materials'. Please explore the word's meaning at home with your child. 

Homework:

Please note that this term's project homework is at the bottom of this page. 

Reading:

We would love to see the children in EYFS using their extra time at home to read some brilliant books. If children read three times at home, they get a raffle ticket. Please, therefore, keep a quick record in reading logs – your children can write the title in to help! We would also like to encourage children to bring their reading records into school every day.

Coming up:

  • Class photos- 20th May

Many thanks for all of your support,

Miss Daw & Miss Wingate
