Summer 1 Curriculum

This term we are focusing on ‘Dinosaurs’. We will be exploring life in prehistoric times and how the dinosaurs lived. We are looking forward to asking ourselves how do we know so much about the past? Whilst exploring fossils, bones and non – fiction texts. There will be opportunities to explore how the world was different in pre-historic times, significant individuals such as Mary Anning and investigating what dinosaurs ate. 

Every Thursday afternoon we will be joining in with music lessons that will be taught through the Lincolnshire Music Service.

For our RE Topic this term, we will be looking at the topic ‘Salvation’. We will be exploring Holy Week and what Easter meant to Christians.

Musician in Residence

All of EYFS had a fantastic oppurtunity to take part in Taiko drumming this term. All of the children had an amazing time learning some Japanese language, chants and learning how to create different dynamic on the drums. Most of the children preferred drumming like Thunder!
