Learning and experimenting through #play is at the heart of Froebelian practice. Play is the principle means of learning in early childhood. Yet Susana Castro-Kemp 's research shows that Oftsed inspection reports do not recognise or value play enough... #Froebel

Children who know more words read better AND think better. A wide vocabulary improves cognitive processing. Teach your pupils more tier 2 words 🧠☑

We were so excited to see the snow!

We have some budding engineers and architects in HTPS Reception. The recycling bench has never been so busy! I hope your grownups have made room for more creations next week 😉 #HTPSEA #HTPSpupilvoice

The children’s engagement levels in play has increased by extending uninterrupted time. Just look at their creations and proud faces 😊 #Froebel #HTPSACL Herbert Thompson Mrs S Marsh

The children have been busy developing their snack area. They painted the lampshades, made menus and added their favourite books #HTPSHCI Herbert Thompson

HTPS Reception went to Castell Coch to look for the golden chalice to help Princess Dwynwen. We looked up. We looked down. We looked all around and no golden chalice could be found…but what fun we had! 🏆🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿🌼
