Foundation 2 Autumn 2 2026
Welcome back to Foundation 2! We hope you had a wonderful half term break.
We have a busy half term in front of us! This half term we are going to be looking at ‘Autumn and Winter.’ We will look at the changes the different seasons bring us, looking at the weather, trees, animals and birds, the clothing we wear and the celebrations that we celebrate both in school and at home. We will also talk about hibernation and migration learning why animals and birds do this.
We will have a visit to Nuthall Methodist Church to take part in their Christmas tree festival. We will learn about the birth of Jesus and the Christmas story. The children will learn an oral story called, ‘We’re Going on a Baby Hunt.’ We will of course end the half term with lots of Christmas based activities and a Christmas Party.
We will share this topic through our 2 focus books;
For more information about the activities your child will access, please see our Knowledge Organiser on our school page.
Please encourage your child to put on their own coat, shoes, and socks as this will really help them during the school day, especially as the colder weather approaches.
If you have any concerns or questions, please feel free to come and see us - preferably at the end of the day.
The Foundation 2 team
