Foundation 1

To find out more about our EYFS Curriculum and learning through play, please visit our EYFS Curriculum page from the following links.

Foundation 1 - 2024 / 2025

 

Throughout the year in Foundation One, we will learn through a balance of child initiated play and adult directed activities. We will learn to work independently as well as being supported through our play and guided activities. We will choose our own learning both indoors and outdoors and take part in activities around the school grounds, including in the garden. We will learn how to learn by studying the Characteristics of Effective Learning and reading stories about our Learning Characters. All of the Seven Areas of Learning and Development will be covered through our activities and play each week and we will build on our knowledge and skills. During the year, we will have a range of visitors in school. We will listen to lots of stories and sing lots of songs and rhymes to develop our vocabulary.

Autumn 1 2024-2025

 

Welcome to all our new Foundation 1 children and welcome back to all our Foundation children that started last academic year!

 

Throughout Foundation 1, we will be learning lots of nursery rhymes and reading lots of stories. We will begin the year by exploring diversity by learning about ourselves and our families. We look forward to a visit from a librarian to find out about the library. We will learn about bakers and retell the Gingerbread Man story. We will be making some tasty gingerbread men too! We will look at birthday celebrations and how to bake a cake. Towards the end of the half term, we will read some stories about farm life and learn about the celebration of Harvest.

Here are this half term's Key Texts:
