Early Years Hub - Maple, Elm & Holly

Welcome to our Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) Hub

A very warm welcome to our page. We have three classes Maple, Elm and Holly. All three classes often work and play together as a hub, and have a shared outdoor play area.  By joining together, we aim to make this the best possible start to a love of life-long learning. It is a privilege to be sharing your child's first stepping stone into education. Our EYFS team leader is Mrs Wilford who is also a class teacher to Holly Class.  

We hope you will find all the information you need about Nursery, Preschool and Reception life here at St Joseph's. However, if you do have any questions, please send an email to:

Our Learning 

This half term, our main focus will be to settle all of our children into their new classes and help them to get to know their environment, the adults and each other.  We will also be helping children to become familiar with their new routines and the and boundaries that we have in school.   In addition to this, Maple and Elm will begin their nursery rhyme journey with Jack and Jill, Wind the Bobbin, Pat-a-Cake and Hickory Dickory Dock.  They will do lots of fun activities and crafts related to these and become really familiar with these classic rhymes.  Holly and Elm will explore their topic, 'Families' through stories, arts and crafts and lots of talk about their own families too.  They will be learning about how families can be different in many ways, yet all are important and very special indeed.
