HOME LEARNING

We're having a roar-some time with our Dinosaur theme this term.

​

Below, you'll find our home learning Bingo Board to choose activities to do with your children at home.

​

We’re excited to share our new Home Learning Bingo Board with you!

This board is filled with a variety of fun, engaging, and meaningful activities designed to spark curiosity, creativity, and conversation at home. Each activity has been thoughtfully chosen to support your child’s development in a playful and low-pressure way.

Participation is completely optional, but we highly encourage families to explore the board together. Whether it’s baking, building, reading, or exploring nature, these activities are a great way to create special moments, strengthen bonds, and make lasting memories.
