Finally, our wonderful EYFS children reminded us of the power of combining all of our differences. Whilst individual colours are beautiful in their own right, what is even more beautiful is the combination of colours that makes the rainbow 🌈 inspired by Joan Miro & Alma Thomas.

I foraged some wild garlic today. And made wild garlic pesto. It tasted like eating grass. Won’t be doing that again.

If you were 4 you would want to make something here wouldn’t you #eyfs #reception #refresh

EYFS have had a wonderful time celebrating Eid and Vaisakhi!

I do really love being in reception! This afternoon, some girls were role playing outside and said they were Cinderella, the stepsisters and stepmum. I asked 'ahh who's being prince charming' - little girl replied 'no one, we don't need a prince charming'!!' 🤣 love it! #EYFS

Watch out for the evil pea! The children have been making posters to warn people! Thankfully Mr Joyce helped the class trap him! #trinityallsaints #bingley #EYFS Sue Hendra Paul Linnet

Fox swam 5 metres without any floats today! 🌟🦊💦 EYFS@Southfield

🧵Oracy.
One of the three prime areas in EYFS is communication and language. It's a prime area because it's fundamental to success both academically and generally. This doesn't diminish as children move through key stages.

'Children under 5 should not be inactive for long periods, except when they're asleep.'

We need to celebrate *moving*, not sitting, for healthy development! #EYFS

We are so proud of Reception’s Art outcomes from last half term! We loved reflecting on our learning during our ‘Art Showcase’ today and looking at other year groups’ too 🥰 🎨 #eyfs #playislearning #weareroundhay #artproject

The Ofsted/DfE idea of learning as a 'change in long term memory' is particularly problematic for #EYFS because we support children's overall development. It leads to weird contortions like on this bizarre Ofsted slide.

Reception have enjoyed completing their cookie challenges this week. #EYFS #BeHalfpenny

FYBS have been exploring instruments and the different sounds we can make. We tried to keep a beat with them! #eyfs #music
