Autumn 2 Curriculum

This term we will be focusing on ‘special people and celebrations’. We will be exploring different celebrations such as bonfire night, Diwali and Christmas. In nursery children will be thinking about different people who help us, children will be discussing different jobs where people help others and exploring what they want to be when they grow up. Children in Reception will start looking at how different people help us in the wider community and in our local community. We will also be exploring colour and linking this learning to Bonfire night and the Hindu festival, Diwali. In RE this term we will be thinking about special people. This will involve thinking about the special people around us and also special people in different religions.

In a few weeks time, we are sure that we will be excited for Christmas! We will be doing lots of Christmas activities and making different Christmas crafts.

Autumn 2 Learning - People who help us and celebrations

Diwali Week

We have learnt all about the Hindu festival 'Diwali'. We have thought about how this is celebrated and have made cards, made new colourful clothes, made rangoli patterns and diya lamps as part of this learning. We have had lots of fun whilst learning all about this celebration.
