EYFS Reform Information What is the EYFS? The EYFS is the statutory Early Years curriculum. This is mandatory for all schools, settings and childminders to follow from birth up to the end of the reception. The EYFS sets out our legal obligations regarding things like an adult: child ratios, suitable people, safeguarding and welfare, staff qualifications, and learning and development. How are the Educational Programmes in EYFS broken down? These are divided into 7 areas of learning. The ‘Prime’ areas form the basis for all learning, and the ‘Specific’ areas build on those skills and broaden children’s understanding, experiences and knowledge. In the nursery, we always focus on the Prime areas in the first instance as they really do form the foundation for everything else. The 'Prime Areas' include 1. Personal, Social, Emotional Development 2. Communication and Language 3. Physical Development The 'Specific Areas' include 1. Literacy 2. Mathematics 3. Understanding the World 4. Expressive Arts and Design Early years foundation stage (EYFS) statutory framework For additional information regarding EYFS, please use the Government website https://www.gov.uk/government/publications/early-years-foundation-stage-framework--2

Operation Encompass In every force. In every school. For every child Ducklings is part of Operation Encompass which is a national scheme that operates jointly between schools and the police forces. Operational Encompass is the reporting to schools, before the start of the next school day when a child has experienced domestic abuse. As a school we have ensured that a member of our staff (designated safeguarding lead) known as a key adult, has been trained in the Operation Encompass procedures allowing us to then use the information that has been shared, in confidence, to support the child/ren in our care. The Domestic Abuse Act 2021 identifies children who experience domestic abuse as victims of domestic abuse in their own right. We are keen to offer the best support possible to all our pupils and we believe this will be extremely beneficial for all those involved. DOWNLOAD OUR POSTER HERE

A grand total of £22,000 has been spent on the garden to replace all the patio, remove the 3 trees, levelling off the ground, install new drainage and, of course, install good quality artificial grass. This makeover will provide the children with a much better environment to explore in all weather. It will also make the garden much more accessible to wheelchair users!

Ducklings Gardeners Ducklings Gardeners projects engage all sorts of senses and help children to develop and recognise them without even realising. Being exposed to new textures like soil, flowers, seeds, and petals, these hands-on experiences are learning opportunities that also increase their environmental awareness and teaches nutrition by making the connection between growing foods and the importance of a good diet. We aim to teach our children and the future generation to be environmentally aware. Articles - Research on why gardening is so key, especially for children!

Not only do the children love to be outdoors and see all the nature, they also love getting their hands muddy helping out in growing the fruits and vegetables, and they love the storytimes there. If you'd love to see some Ducklings Staff reading popular stories at the allotment click here. Project: Build a Bug House Building a bug house only requires an open-fronted box – the rest is found in your garden already! Twigs, pine cones, stones, broken pots, cardboard toilet rolls, drilled pieces of wood, dried grass, old bricks, the options are endless, and will help attract ladybirds, butterflies, woodlice, solitary bees, dragon flys, and if you're lucky, the occasional toad, mouse, or hedgehog! Project: Build a pond in a pot Building a pond in a pot is super simple and requires little effort to maintain if done correctly! Get a large, shallow container with no drainage holes, and add a selection of pond and marginal plants, plus an oxygenator to help keep the water clear and odourless. Once set up, move the pond pot in a slightly shaded area, avoid full sunlight, and top up with water whenever needed. There pot ponds will help attract birds, insects, and other forms of wildlife, while also being a ton of fun to build for kids who love getting wet and muddy. For complete instructions click here. Project: Make Fat Cakes for birds Birds love fat cakes, as they give them energy and help keep them warm. and these feeding balls don't need to be shop bought; you can use all sorts of kitchen scraps such as cheese, dried fruits, and dry porridge oats. Just mix with melted lard or suet in old yogurt containers with a string, and set in the fridge overnight. For more instructions click here. Project: Make a Bee Hotel Offer solitary bees five-star accommodation with an easy-to-make bee hotel! Use anything for the frame - an wooden box or an old bird house for example, so uncycle it to become a home for solitary bees which help pollinate local plants! Full the frame with brown paper, pencils, bamboo canes, plant stems, drilled pieces of hardwood or logs, and let the bees move in! For more instructions, click here. Project: Make a Bird Bath Birds need water for many more reasons than just hydration. In the winter, birds will bathe to clean their feathers so they can fly further, and in the summer, birds will use water to help cool themselves down. All you need is a terracotta pot and saucer, and all-purpose glue and you're good to go! Simply flip the pot upside down, and glue the saucer on top of it (like in the photo below). Add in some rocks for small birds to land on, and top up with water whenever required! For more ideas click here . Activity: Nature Walk Scavenger Hunts Print off this scavenger hunt checklist, and go on a nature walk with your child and see which items they can explore and find themselves!
