Spring Term 2 ‘Springtime on the Farm‘
This term Apple Class will be welcoming spring with a visit to Bath City Farm, sparking a rich learning journey all about life on a working farm. Throughout the term, the children will explore where our food comes from, meet and learn about different farm animals, and observe the seasonal changes happening around them. Through stories, role‑play, hands‑on activities, and outdoor learning, the children will develop new vocabulary, practise early maths skills, investigate and express themselves creatively with farm‑themed art and play. Discovering the important role farmers play all help to build curiosity, understanding, and confidence. This engaging topic supports all areas of the EYFS curriculum while nurturing a love of nature and the world around us.
Please see weekly timetable for Apple Class. This is a general overview of the days throughout the week.
Cosy Time (Guided Reading) takes place in groups throughout the week.
Timetable is subject to change due to events, visits or trips taking place, or weather conditions (Mike’s Meadow).
Our Vision Statement for EYFS at Batheaston Church School
At Batheaston Church School we endeavour to promote a love of learning; where interests and talents are nurtured and challenged, empathy is fostered and friendships formed. A child entering Apple Class will embark on a creative, engaging learning adventure. Our environment is rich in first-hand experiences with time given to dream, aspire and achieve. Independence is encouraged and risk-taking is celebrated within safe and secure surroundings.
As a team we are passionate about the education of young children. Activities planned provide a wide range of opportunities to enable children to play, work, collaborate, apply skills learnt, test ideas and narrate their inner imaginings. We aim to build children’s academic, social and emotional well-being so that they can thrive both within our walls and the world beyond.
