Join us on Wednesday, 25th September 2019 for a curriculum workshop at Nocton Community Primary School. Discover our topic-based approach following the National Curriculum programmes of study for Autumn Term. The Flamingo Class dives into the world of castles, questioning: "Why do the Royals need castles?" with engaging mini-outcomes and a fun visit to Lincoln Castle. Meanwhile, the Panther Class delves into the mysteries of rainforests, exploring habitats, mapping skills, and rainforest layers. The workshop concludes in early December with a captivating finale. Parents, carers, and the wider school community are invited to participate in PE activities and collaborative learning sessions. Experience the joy of working together, listening to your children read, practicing times tables, and encouraging independence. Let's embark on this educational journey together!
