*Our Christian Value for the term*

Our Christian Value this term is ‘Friendship.’

Friendship is such an important value in our society, with children often spending more time with their friends than with family.

Jesus tells stories of the heavenly banquet to which all are invited. The barriers between people are broken down in a loving community around God, and Jesus had stern words to say to those who refused to recognise that all are included in this community of friendship.

True friendship enables each person to grow and ensures that the unique individuality of each person is recognised. All this echoes the value placed by God on the preciousness of each person.

‘A friend loves at all times.’ (Proverbs 17:17)

*Our Learning for this term*

Summer Term 2 - 2026

This term our focus is Under the Sea, and we will learn about stories such as Commotion in the Ocean, Snail Mail, The Singing Mermaid along with others too.  As we listen and enjoy each story we will have focussed activities linked to the areas of the Early Years Framework.

We continue with our pre writing program Squiggle While You Wiggle and support our children moving to Reception in September with phonics too.

On Monday 29th June we will be celebrating International Mud Day which will be lots of fun!

We have Sport's Day to look forward to on 8th July.

One of our biggest themes of this term will be preparing the children for their transition to Reception. There will be lots of opportunities to talk about moving to our new classes and spending time getting to know our new teachers.
