Welcome to Foundation



EYFS Music Day, Friday 28th November
To support our learning next half term and to give us an exciting hands-on experience, we will be inviting Steve Grocott in to school for a special Music Day! Steve is a professional musician, composer and qualified teacher who specialises in music and storytelling in the Early Years. We will be exploring the connections between music and all areas of the Early Years Foundation Stage curriculum, encouraging our chldren's innate musicality and creativity!
Please log on to your ParentPay account by Monday 27th October to give permission for your child to attend the event and to pay your contribution of £2.91 (£1.46 for those in receipt of Pupil Premium funding). The experience will be shown as a payment item at the top of the home page. If you require any assistance with ParentPay please do not hesitate to contact the school office.
We are very much looking forward to our Music Day and hope your child really enjoys the experience.
If you have any questions, please contact us via the class email.
Many thanks for your continued support,
The EYFS Team

Have you heard about The Withycombe 60?
It's 60 brilliant things to do while at our school.
Each year group has a list of interesting activities to work towards through the year, with each class having their own 'postcard' to write down when they complete their activities.
We'll add some photos on this page as we go along!
