Outdoor Learning in EYFS – Where Curiosity Comes to Life!

Outdoor Learning in EYFS – Where Curiosity Comes to Life! Last week our reception class visited 'The Conker Club' for a fantastic day of outdoor learning. Through outdoor play, our youngest learners are encouraged to explore, investigate and be curious about the world around them. Whether they are building, digging, climbing or observing nature, every moment is rich with opportunity. What skills are developed through outdoor play? *Communication and language through shared play and storytelling *Physical development through climbing, balancing and exploring *Problem-solving and critical thinking as children test ideas and take risks *Creativity and imagination in open-ended environments *Resilience, confidence and independence We recognise that play is a powerful tool for learning. By nurturing curiosity and allowing children the freedom to explore, we are helping to build the foundations for lifelong learning. There's nothing quite like muddy hands, big smiles and curious minds at work! #the_conker_club #OutdoorLearning #EYFS #LearningThroughPlay #CuriousMinds #EarlyYears #SchoolLife To find out about our exceptional village school visit our website www.mortoncofeprimary.co.uk

Phonics at Our School! At our school, we believe strong reading starts with strong foundations and phonics is at the heart of it! We follow the Read Write Inc. phonics programme. Our children are busy exploring sounds, blending words, and growing in confidence every single day. From lively smallgroup sessions to handson activities that make learning fun, phonics helps our pupils become skilled, enthusiastic readers. We're so proud of the progress they're making and the smiles that come with it! In summer 2025, 95% of our Year 1 children passed the phonics screening test.
