New Year Update from the John Hampden School, Wendover

NEW YEAR UPDATE

In January we welcomed 26 new children and their parents to our brand new Early Years class. Our new pupils have settled quickly and we are very impressed to see them following the routines and making the most of the learning opportunities being offered to them. They are called Crickets Class and they are the first to use our brand new, purpose built nursery classroom. The building has been designed to provide plenty of space inside and out and they have their own outside classroom too. Early observations suggest the children are eager, ready to learn and excited by the new opportunities available to them.

‘The Early Years Foundation Stage has repeatedly been identified as an outstanding example of a school following the principles and practice of the EYFS.

Observations in the new nursery noted a well organised and resourced area offering children independent access to a wide range of enabling resources. The levels of children’s well-being and engagement were high and this was notable.’

Jo Hobbs, Early Years Advisor (16th January 2019)
