Mrs Fletcher - Caterpillars Class Teacher
Welcome to Caterpillars Class!
Caterpillars is the first step into life at Orchard Park Primary. Our focus is on personal, social, and emotional development, as well as communication and language skills. Children learn to play, express emotions, and build relationships with others.
Outdoor learning is a big part of our day, with daily garden challenges and welly walks promoting healthy, active lifestyles. Sensory play and mark making help develop the fine motor skills needed for early writing. We follow key topics while also exploring each child’s unique interests and curiosities.
Our topics include:
-
All About Me
-
Celebrations
-
People Who Help Us
-
Traditional Tales
-
Animals, Minibeasts and Growing
-
Holidays and Travel
