Autumn Fun
Discovery Learning
Our mornings start with exploring and learning through play. There is immense value through talking, problem-solving and making connections with what we know and what we are learning. At this time, children are agents of their learning where they have the opportunity to decide what they want to learn or explore. The role of the teacher is to extend children's thinking by asking questions, providing opportunities to 'dig deeper' though researching, experimenting and testing.
Passion Fridays
We have started our Passions on Fridays. Here are some photos of our Thorrington Rest Home Group. Making beautiful connections in our Community.
