Hedgehogs and Owl class is made up with our Nursery and Reception (Hedgehogs) and Year 1 children (Owls). They are taught by Mrs Collin with support from Mrs Chalmers and Miss Wilson.

We have so many wonderful experiences on offer in the classroom and have created a learning environment that is welcoming, engaging and exciting for the children to explore and thrive. We have areas dedicated to maths, writing, arts and crafts, home corner, role play, construction, small world, funky fingers, a sensory area and a quiet reading den; something to capture the interests of every child!

We also have a covered shelter attached to the classroom. This area has a large walk-in sand pit, mud kitchen, water play, chalk boards, gravel pit, writing shed, loose parts and themed equipment and activities that change depending on our topic.

In Nursery and Reception we use a mixture of Tapestry and paper learning journals to observe and document the children’s learning through the year. We add observations and pictures of things your child has been doing in the day. We also love seeing and sharing all the wonderful activities and events that have happened at home!
