E Educators – We are both co-educators for our
children and want to work together to support your child.
EYFS Learning Journals (Tapestry) – this is an electronic record of your child’s learning achievements and development: records of conversations, discussions, collection of drawing, writing, photos & videos of practical activities, personal and social interactions. We will offer a parents workshop in September on how to use Tapestry.
How can parents contribute to them? We encourage you to contribute to your
child’s learning Journal. You may wish to send in stickers, notes or photos to celebrate your child’s achievements. Its so quick and easy to add them online but paper observations are great too.

PPlay – Children learn through play!
Practical activities give the children a chance to explore, talk and question. This also promotes language development. Language is a skill for life; it’s used for thinking, social interaction and communication.
Provisions – we use outdoor and indoor environments to help give reason, purpose and context to our learning. We learn what ever the weather – we have waterproofs, wellies and endless supplies of mud and puddles!
We love MUD in reception!!!
