Welcome

Foundation Stage 2 (Reception Class)  is taught by Miss A Rowe and supported by Mrs Bullock.  During the week, the children are also supported by Mrs Bishop, Miss Thompson and Miss Strout.
Learning in Foundation stage 2
 
In Foundation stage 2 class children will cover 3 overreaching themes through the year. These are: 
Autumn Term: Our Wonderful selves 
Spring Term: All creatures great and small.
Summer Term: On the Move 
 
At St Catherine's we use a mix of objective led and child led planning. This means that there are set objective and outcomes that the children are taught and will achieve each week, half term or term. However, there is a careful consideration of the current interests of the children in the classroom and their interests drive the direction of the enhancements added to provision. 
 
 
What will learning look like in Foundation Stage 2? 
During the foundation year children will learn through adult led taught sessions and through child led opportunities through continuous provision. 
Learning is hands on and play based to encourage the children to embed learning in lots of ways. 
We have access to our classroom and attached outside area. In addition we have a woodland area, with pond and polytunnel for regular outdoor learning experiences.
