Introducing Woodwork in the Early Years

Woodwork Parent Workshop

Wednesday 6th March

9:00 am – 9:30 am

EY Hall

 

 

Dear Parents and Carers

We would like to invite you to attend our information morning on introducing woodwork here at the Early Years campus.  This informative session will enable parents to gain an insight into the benefits of woodwork which works alongside the EYFS curriculum, as well as an opportunity to ask any questions you might have in relation to this.

Children now in their early years may have future professions that do not yet exist. It is more important than ever for the new generation to be able to think creatively and develop problem-solving skills. Woodwork exercises such skills as children make their own choices and learn through trial and error. It sparks creative thinking and imagination, qualities that are at least as important in our changing world as the practical skills gained. Woodwork invites connection between all aspects of learning and development – so it can be central to the curriculum.

We are looking forward to seeing you on Wednesday 6th March in the EY Hall from 9:00 am-9:30 am where we can share more information on the benefits of introducing woodwork here at the Early Years.

 

Kind regards

 

Eleanor Loran

Head of Early Years
