Cassatt-Year R

Welcome to Cassatt - Year R!

In Cassatt class: 

we are a team, 

we respect each other 

and we take risks.

Welcome to Cassatt class page.

The Cassatt team is made up of Mrs Watson (Monday to Wednesday), Mrs Jary (Wednesday to Friday), Mrs Henderson, Ms Kasiarova and Mrs Lewis-Nelson.

This half term we will be starting a new ‘I wonder…’ line of enquiry thinking about what happens on a farm. We are very excited to be going on a class trip to Bucklebury Farm where we will be meeting lots of farm animals and finding out how a farm works.

We will be continuing to explore changes as we find out about animal life cycles and as we watch our seeds grow and begin to care for our vegetable patch. In RE we will be learning about how Christians believe that God is the creator of all living things and how God asks Christians to care for the world around them. 

Throughout the year we have learnt about many significant celebrations so we will be busy learning about and preparing for the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee and celebrating this in our class and throughout the school.  

Year R is a special year where we set the Foundation for the love of life-long learning. You only have one childhood so let’s make it fun and memorable.

The Foundation Stage Curriculum is broken down into seven areas of learning – Personal, Social and Emotional Development, Communication and Language, Literacy, Mathematics, Understanding of the World, Expressive Arts and Design and Physical Development.  Over the term, the children will participate in all of these areas of learning through play, story, discussion, rhymes, music and in so many other ways.  We hope you enjoy hearing about them all from your child!  

Please continue to check the school twitter feed, Tapestry and back to our page for photos and news.

Stage One is short term Remote Education Support (RES) as most families who are awaiting Covid 19 test results are off for 1 to 2 days. 

We would expect that if your child is not symptomatic that work will be completed and uploaded to Tapestry. If your child is poorly, we would ask you to make the judgement as to what you feel they can or cannot do.
