Welcome to Hawthorn(YrR)!
In Hawthorn class our curriculum is child centred, learning through play and exploration.
We work as one team, where the children can learn and play together, having free-flow playful learning both inside and outside.

Important information for Hawthorn
At the start of the day, the double doors will open at 8:40am and the children will be able to come and hang their things on their peg. Our day finishes at 3.15pm.
- Children will need to bring in their own water bottle to drink from throughout the day. Please make sure this is named.
- Please make sure your child brings in a waterproof coat each day. It is a good idea to send your child in with a pair of wellies to keep in school, we do go outside in all weathers. Please make sure they are named.
- Snack will be provided by the school. Every day our children have access to fruit as well as toast. Alternatively, you may choose to supply a healthy snack, such as fruit, for your child. We are a nut free school so please ensure that anything sent in for your child does not contain nuts.
P.E
P.E this term is on a Thursday. We are very fortunate to have 'The Dance Lady' who is teaching us dance this term. Please ensure your child comes to school in their PE kit on this day, ready for an active session.
Reading
Your child will be given a decodable phonics book. In school we will read with each child at least once a week, building on their pre-reading skills and assessing their phonic skills. We ask that your child shares their school reading book at home with an adult, with each session recorded in their reading record. Your child's book is changed every Monday.
Our Curriculum
For Reception children we follow the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) framework, which is based on learning through play. We have daily phonics and maths sessions. Please see our curriculum booklet for our termly coverage.
