Reception children from Pine Ridge & Lorraine Infant Schools visit Little Street

This half term Reception children at Pine Ridge and Lorraine have been learning about local community and exploring occupations of people who work in the daytime and people who work at nighttime.  Both Robins and Holly class went on an exciting trip to Little Street - a children's role play town.  It was a great opportunity for the children to use their imaginations in lots of different role play situations; everything from shopping, to emergency workers, vets to superheroes.  The children were able to explore the different job roles within the town to prepare them for their end of half term project where they will work together to build a structure for their 'mini me' to work in.

‘It was lovely to see the children use different resources, props and costumes to fully immerse themselves into a variety of different roles.  Having this hands-on experience developed the children's understanding of people who help us, what their roles involve and who we know in our local community with these roles.  The children not only had the chance to develop their storytelling but continue to build on their oracy skills.  The children had a wonderful trip and are already looking forward to their next one’. said Senior Teacher, Miss Williams.

Pine Ridge & Lorraine is a federation of one-form mixed entry nurseries & infant schools located in Camberley, Surrey. The schools joined GLF Schools in February 2017 and have classes from Nursery to Year 2.
