Little Learners

Little Learners has begun an exciting term, with our first formal transition morning into the Kindergarten classroom with Mrs Thomsen in Week 1. This was a wonderful opportunity for the children to become familiar with their new learning environment and begin building confidence as they prepare for school. 

In Week 2, we began exploring the much-loved story Peter Rabbit. This book will be the focus of our English learning throughout the term, providing opportunities to develop listening and comprehension skills, build vocabulary, retell stories, recognise letters and sounds, and engage in early writing experiences through play.

This term, our mathematics learning will also be inspired by Peter Rabbit. Through stories, hands-on activities and play-based experiences, the children will explore early mathematical concepts, including counting, number recognition, sorting, patterns, shapes and comparing quantities. Using familiar characters and events from the story will help make mathematics meaningful and engaging as children develop their confidence with numbers and problem-solving. Learning will be supported through practical activities, games, creative experiences and opportunities to explore mathematical ideas together.
