At Fulmer Infant School, children's learning is cross curricular as we believe this creative approach enhances and embeds learning and more importantly makes learning FUN!

Children contribute to the direction of the topics. Subjects that do not naturally fit into the theme are taught as discrete units.
Our philosophy of learning is that every child should access a curriculum which is broad, balanced and fun so that each child is happy and confident for the next stage of their learning.
Reception children have loved their owl baby topic, which has produced some wonderful opportunities for writing and expressive arts and design, including collecting natural materials to make nests for their baby owls!

Each Friday, a class spends time in our garden learning how to grow a variety of plants and food which they then sell to their parents. Thank you to Sue Kirby, Chair of Governors and her volunteer parents who run this club. All volunteers have DBS checks.
Every Thursday children choose a non fiction or fiction book from our library. Thank you to Mrs Domson and Mrs Basra, two volunteer parents who run the library. All volunteers have DBS checks.
There are also enriching traditions such as the children baking their own Christmas cakes, designing and publishing their own Christmas cards, country dancing with local schools, Easter bonnet parades, outside learning in our outdoor writing hut, raising chicks (see the time-lapse video of a hatching chick below), musical morning for Mothers’ day, Christmas and Summer productions, fund raising for a variety of charities, World Book Day activities and much, much more.
