Foundation

In the Foundation stage here in Appledore, we believe that children learn through play and first hand experiences. We plan around a theme to ensure that there are a wide range of activities available . There is a balance between directed tasks and free chosen activities. The children are encouraged to talk about their home life and experiences and to contribute to the current topic. We encourage them to enjoy friendships , to build relationships and to see themselves as part of the school and wider community. Our primary aim is for children to enjoy learning so that they continue to be learners for life.
