Welcome to Team Galaxy and Team Starburst

2024-2025

Welcome to the start of our new spring term. The children have settled back in well and have been sharing lots of stories about what we have been up to at home. We are very excited to start the spring term and looking forward to the weather getting warmer and creating lots of wonderful memories over the coming months. 

This half term in Team starburst we will be focusing on the theme of Old Mcdonald, exploring this through stories, songs and play. 

This half term in Team Galaxy we will be focusing on Traditional Tales.

We will also be looking at signs of Spring around us and going on some walks around our school and explore with our senses the starts of spring. 

We will be learning lots of new vocabulary relating to the different Tradidtional Tales we will be reading together and some new vocabulary relating to Spring. 

In maths we will be exploring numbers up to 5.

We will spend time practising to sit and listen during circle times where we will explore the daily calendar and sing lots of nursery rhymes and songs each day. 

In Team Galaxy we will also be introducing the children to Squiggle as you wiggle at our carpet times, to get us moving and building strong muscles.  

We will be looking at the different celebrations throughout March and April :

• Shrove Tuesday / Pankcake day (4th March)
• World book day (6th March)
• Spring starts (20th March)
• Red nose day (21st March)
• Mothers day (30th March)
• Eid al Fitr 2025 (30th March)
• Good Friday (18th April)
• Easter sunday (20th April)
• Easter Monday (21st April)

If you have any questions about your child please do not hesitate to speak to a member of staff.
