Forest School

Shining Start will continue to take part in weekly Forest School sessions as part of their learning experience. Forest School offers a wonderful opportunity for children to explore nature, develop confidence, and build important skills such as teamwork, resilience, and problem-solving in a safe outdoor environment. These sessions will be led by trained staff and will take place regardless of the weather! We look forward to seeing the children thrive through these enriching outdoor adventures!

100 Life Skills

This term, our 100 Life Skills lessons will focus on British Sign Language to support inclusive communication, exploring what makes a good friend, and developing practical independence through activities such as hanging washing on a line and learning how to clean different surfaces safely and effectively.

Interventions

This half term, our interventions will continue to support children’s speech, language and social‑emotional development through a range of structured activities, including group games, circle time, shared snack sessions and creative tasks, all designed to build confidence, communication skills and positive relationships in a supportive environment.
