Fine Motor Skills
Fine Motor Skills
During provision, our FS1 learners have been exploring popcorn kernels and small scoops, tweezers and pots. Children practised using a pincer grip to pick up individual kernels and transfer them into different containers, showing good control and concentration. When using the tweezers, children experimented with squeezing and releasing, strengthening hand muscles and coordination.
Phonics
Phonics
This week in phonics we introduced the phoneme /p/. We have been incorporating things beginning with /p/ in our provision to help the learners make connections to their environment. We have also been using the Little Wandle formation phrase to support the children with their letter formation: down the penguin’s back, up and around its head.
Sensory Play
Sensory Play
In FS1, our story of the week is "The Three Little Pigs", and the learners have been having a great time diving into the theme! During sensory play, they built their own little houses using straw, wooden sticks, and mini bricks. Learners explored a playful “pig sty,” making the whole story come to life in a fun and imaginative way.
Understanding the World
Understanding the World
Linking to our phoneme of the week /p/, the FS1 learners have been enjoying making their own pizza's using different loose parts resembling pizza toppings! This creates an exciting and engaging hands-on experience for the learners, giving them a glimpse into the world around them and how things work.

Canteen Acess for Primary Learners
Canteen Acess for Primary Learners
We will begin phasing the purchasing of food from the canteen into Primary from Wednesday, 14th October, starting with Year 6 learners. To support the smooth operation of this process, learner cards will be kept in school and given to students at lunchtime to make purchases.
Please note: learners can only purchase food if they have a card.
If you would like your child to buy lunch from the canteen, you will need to purchase a learner card. Instructions for how to purchase the card can be found spare APP.
Please ensure there is sufficient money loaded onto the card to allow your child to buy food. You can use the SPARE app to top up the card, view what your child has eaten, and purchase meals in advance.
We are aiming to introduce this system to Year 4 and Year 5 learners after the half-term break. We need this time to carefully organise the process so that we can maximise efficiency and ensure a smooth experience for all learners.
We thank you for your patience and understanding during this introductory phase.
In case of any questions, please contact directly support@paywithspare.com
