EYFS – The Conkers

Welcome to The Conker’s class page!

Welcome to the Conker’s Class page. Here you can find lots of information about us so you can keep up to date with all of the exciting things that we get up to throughout the school year.

Mrs Parker (F2P) is our teacher. Mrs Fraser, Miss Piotrowska, Mrs Dempsey and Miss Bursztyn are our Teaching Assistants.

During this academic year, we will be communicating through the use of Class Dojo and sharing lots of the children’s wonderful work there too. Please do ensure you have set up your Class Dojo account in order to access this.

If you need to contact us at any time throughout the year, please do not hesitate to get in touch. We can be reached through the messaging feature on your Class Dojo account, via email or in school, by appointment with the school office.

Our Routines

Our school day begins at 8.40pm and ends at 3.10pm.

Reading for pleasure books will come home each Monday and are chosen by your child. It is ok if they bring books home, they have already read. Remember, this is a book for YOU to read to THEM at bedtime. It will need returning to school on a Friday please.

We have PE on Wednesday afternoon. Please send your child into school WEARING their P.E kit (dark coloured tracksuit bottoms or leggings, a white t-shirt and a red hoodie/sweatshirt or their school jumper or cardigan and wearing trainers or plimsols).

We will visit Eco-Land on Thursday afternoon. Please send your child into school with a suitable coat, sun hat/cap and wellies in a carrier bag.

Our Learning

This half term we have a really exciting topic all about ourselves, ‘Remarkable Me!’. We are going to be celebrating the languages, countries and cultures we have within our setting. Each week our ‘Everywhere Bear’ will bring us a new book and our week’s learning will be centered around this. Keep an eye out on Class Dojo as our new books and the new words he brings us too!

Our Religious Education topic for this half term is called “Creation & Covenant”. Throughout this topic, we will explore… 1. God made me (linked to children learning names, sense of self), 2. God made my family, 3. I am part of God’s family (Baptism), 4. God made the world and everything in it and 5. Care for all of God’s creations.

Family Friday Sessions

Once a fortnight we would love to invite you into school to take part in various family sessions. These dates will be confirmed via Class Dojo.
