By the end of EYFS we expect our children at Saint Patrick's to have built up the appropriate skills and knowledge to be able to consistently:
*explore the natural world around them with confidence
and
*make observations, drawing pictures of animals and plants independently.
We also expect our children to understand some important processes and changes in the natural world
around them, including the seasons and changing states of matter.
Take a look at our learning and development throughout EYFS to see the journey
from our earliest starting points to achieving the ELG:
We explore what happens during autumn and the changes that happen around us. We explore pumpkins using our five senses.
