Acorn Class
Welcome to Reception, Year 1 and Year 2!
Acorn's teaching team is Miss Scarlett, Mrs Hunter, Mrs Boggis and Mrs Wright.
Acorn class aims to provide a nurturing environment that places the child at the centre of their own learning. Acorn class has an excellent learning space with quality resources for learning and independent exploring. We are fortunate to have access to an amazing outdoor area that the children have access to rain or shine. Children can get busy building in our construction area, den building, gardening, cooking in the mud-kitchen, bug hunting and much more. The use of these areas enhances the children’s learning development. The children never run out of things to do!

World Book Day
Sheep Class loved dressing up to celebrate World Book Day. We performed poems, created blow-paint aliens and even wrote our own space poetry!
Yummy Pancakes!
We wrote a list of ingredients so we knew what to buy at the shops and wrote a letter to Mr Isherwood to see if he would like any pancakes. We enjoyed mixing the ingredients and even did the washing up! The pancakes were delicious!
