Spring Term 2024

Welcome to Foundation Stage 2!  

We hope you all had a lovely and resful Christmas break, we are really looking forward to welcoming you all back to school! We have lots of fantastic learning oportunities planned for the Spring term, please explore our page for more information and don't forget to sign up to Tapestry to see your child's learning journey online!

If you would like to find out what we will be exploring this term, please download the FS2 information booklet at the bottom of this page. There is also lots of handy information about how you can support your child with their development and their learning journey linked below.

We hope the information will help support you and your child! 

Key Information

Phonics: a big part of our learning this term will focus around Phonics. We will be following the Little Wandle phonics scheme and your child will be sent home with a booklet to support their learning at home. See below for extra support for parents! 

Reading: we will be following the Little Wandle Reading Scheme which uses phonetically decodable books matched to your child's learning. These will be sent home on a Friday and school be returned to school by the Monday. They are used throughout the week, so it is really important they are returned in a timely manner - thankyou!

PE: PE will be on a Friday morning with Mrs Campbell. Please can children arrive in their PE clothes on a Friday, making sure to wear comfy shoes for the whole day! We will be doing PE inside for the first half term. Mrs Bowie has started doing extra PE sessions on a Wednesday afternoon to support FS2 as well, which everyone has loved! Children are okay coming to school in their regular clothes on this day.
