In our Foundation Stage Nursery and Reception class we ...
- Have lots of fun!
- Are kind to each other and show respect to our peers and all adults.
- Have a positive attitude to our learning and support each other.
- Expect our children to become more independent as the year progresses- e.g. getting dressed by ourselves, zipping up our own coat, looking after our own belongings, carrying our own bags and going to the toilet by ourselves.
