Happy new year and welcome back.
It has been great hearing about the children’s news and what they have been up to during the holidays. During the Christmas holidays I have seen many social media posts about what children do, not what they receive that is important. I can categorically say that what the children wanted to talk about was what they had done, who they had seen and where they had been. It sounds like you have all had a good holidays.
Here is the overview for the term, As always with EYFS it can be flexible and the children lead the learning hence the supertato day last term that took place because of their interest in the book.
Welcome back Stiperstones!
I hope you had a wonderful Christmas and you are all rested ready for an exciting term ahead.
This term our topic is ‘Crime and Punishment.’
Here is the overview to share what we have planned so far!

Lots of parents are interested in what we learn across the term in more detail.
So, I have attached a sample timetable (subject to changes across a week) that we follow and some knowledge organisers that give slightly more detail about what we are learning.

Welcome back to a new year and new term. I hope you had a fabulous Christmas!
We’ve got lots of exciting things planned this term to help our learning about our new topic – Voyages of Discovery.
We are going to be learning about significant explorers and adventurers, their achievements and the impact that they made on the world around them. We will be looking in depth at the lives of Christopher Columbus, Ernest Shackleton and Felicity Aston. In Science we will be learning about the Animal Kingdom, and will have a visit from Simon Airey, the animal man, to enhance our learning.
Our P.E. days have changed this term, while swimming lessons are ongoing. Year 2 will be swimming each Friday for 5 weeks from 17th February. Children will need to come to school in their P.E. kit every Thursday and Friday until Easter. For this term there will no P.E. on a Monday.
To find out more about the focus in our areas of learning this term, our topic map and subject knowledge organisers are available at the following links.
