Summer Term 2 ‘Passport to the Animal Kingdom’
This term, our learning theme “Passport to the Animal Kingdom” will build on the children’s strong interest in wild animals, taking them on an exciting journey around the world. Pupils will explore and compare a range of habitats, from rainforests, jungles, deserts and oceans to the African savannah and the Australian outback. We will consider how these environments are similar or different from our own. Through engaging stories and high-quality non-fiction texts, children will deepen their understanding of animals, their adaptations and the places they live. We will also learn about cultures from different countries, linking these to the habitats we study, and expressing our ideas through creative art activities. Our learning will be enriched by a visit to The Bristol Zoo Project, where children will have the opportunity to observe animals first-hand and develop a deeper connection to the natural world.

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.
