In Owl Room We Are Learning… (June 2025)

Jun 6, 2025

We Are Learning… To use Fine and Gross Motor Movements with Confidence, Purpose and Joy

According to the Chief Medical Officer, children under 5 need 180 minutes of physical activity each day!

This term we are getting active. We will be building and attempting our own obstacle courses, and finding creative ways to move over, under, around and through the obstacles, as well as practising catching and other ball skills.

We Are Learning… To use Tools and Hammers Safely for a Purpose

Along with other fine motor activities, we will be introducing woodwork. We will learn about different tools, their names and uses and how to use them safely and effectively.

We Are Learning… To use Descriptive and Positional Language to Describe a Journey and Communicate our Ideas

Linked to our core story We’re Going on a Bear Hunt, we will be acting out and re-telling the story in the garden and starting to map our journey.

We will be using positional language to talk about our route and the ways we move over different obstacles. Where will the bear be hiding? Under the tree? Over the hill? Behind the bandstand?

Watch Michael Rosen performing We’re Going on a Bear Hunt on YouTube. The children will be using the story map below to retell the story.

We will be exploring maps, globes and atlases, reading map based books and stories and creating our maps.

End of Year Family Picnic

Come and join the fun for a stay and play family picnic on Wednesday 16th July 2025 from 11:00am to 2:00pm.
