Welcome to your first year at Mercers Wood Academy!

We’re so excited to have you and your child join us in Hedgehog Class. We have a busy and exciting year ahead!

We'll begin the year with our first topic, ‘All About Me’, which will gradually lead into learning about ‘People Who Help Us’. These themes help the children settle in and start making connections with the world around them.

Our classroom is full of inviting areas to explore, learn, and play, including:

  •          Maths Area
  •          Literacy Corner
  •          Fine Motor Station
  •          Creative Area
  •          Small World Play
  •          Role Play Zone
  •          Reading Corner

We also have even more exciting spaces in our corridor and a NEW outdoor area designed for hands-on learning and adventure!

Each day, your child will receive free milk and a piece of fruit to help them grow big and strong. If your child has any allergies or dietary needs, please let us know as soon as possible so we can make sure everything is safe and inclusive for them.

In Hedgehog Class, we love to bake together throughout the year! If your child has any specific dietary requirements, we’ll always do our best to adapt our recipes so that everyone can join in.

We can’t wait to get started on this wonderful journey together!

We add our learning, achievements and key moments to tapestry as often as possible, please remember to activate your parent account to view, add your own memories and comments.

Please speak to us if you need help with Tapestry at any time!
