We have been busy over the last couple of weeks. We've started a weekly dough disco, which has been really fun! We've had our own pot of playdough and it's been fun doing some dough dancing to help build up the muscles in our hands! We've also been looking at sorting in maths. We came up with different ways we [...]

Most of these initial decisions will lie with our parents of course, as only they know if their child would be well enough for school, but these are uncharted times (I avoided the word 'unprecedented'!), the 'R-rate' [...]
We have had a super first week in our new EYFS unit! We are all amazed at how well the new children have settled in their new space. We have been following the story, 'The Colour Monster' - this has allowed us to talk lots about our feelings and different emotions. We even had our own 'calming session' with a [...]
