Sports Day at South Hill School At South Hill School, our sports day is a fun day for all our pupils. The day begins with EYFS and KS1 meeting on the school field for a carousel of activities. Mr Brathwaite DJs the event and really energises the children as they compete in their houses to get as many points as they can on each activity. Some of these activities are hurdles, javelin, obstacles and dribbling. Our Year six children always help and some activities are run by our year six sports ambassadors! When the carousel is finished, the children then take part in races - again aiming to win points for their houses. Our KS2 children then do the same in the afternoon, with some slightly different activities on the carousel and then ending with their races. Parents are invited to watch and support their children on sports day. They watch from the hillside overlooking the field or from the shade of the daily mile track. It truly is a memorable day!

Wellbeing for ALL At South Hill School, we take pride in the pastoral support we offer our pupils and families. We have a wellbeing team which focuses on supporting pupils’ personal development and welfare. Our wellbeing team signposts families to services they may need. Through our therapeutic approach to behaviour, we promote resilience and independence. We use the ‘Zones of Regulation’ across the school, which is a behaviour approach used to teach pupils to self-regulate their emotions and to take ownership over their behaviour. Our aim is to make sure we have happy pupils who are ready to learn. We very much believe that good wellbeing underpins good behaviour and good learning. It is therefore the centre of the ethos at South Hill.

Our Curriculum At South Hill School, our curriculum allows our pupils to flourish through a nurturing environment, which aims to build confident and resilient learners and provide the building blocks of learning in all subjects, in preparation for their next steps across our school and to secondary school. Our Curriculum Intent The intent of our school curriculum is clearly planned and developed using a progressive approach with a build-up of learning, knowledge and skills. This is m apped out from year group to year group, and across key stages, via our ‘subject long term planning documents’ and ‘year group curriculum overviews’, which follow the National Curriculum. These can be found on each of our subject web pages (‘Curriculum’ tab) and on our year group class pages. We have aimed to design an ambitious curriculum which is designed for the pupils at our school and a curriculum that is relevant and meaningful. The core of our curriculum is based on developing pupils' Reading, Writing and Maths skills and providing a rich, diverse learning experience. We focus on a strong 'daily diet' of learning for all pupils. Our Reading curriculum follows the Read Write Inc scheme to teach phonics and reading skills in a consistent manner. Matching phonetical books further support the acquirement of phonics (also known as the ‘3Ps’ at South Hill School). We use the ‘Herts for Learning’ (HFL) documents for our Core Subjects and we have adapted the 'Learning Challenge Curriculum' ('Weave') for our Foundation Subjects. This ensures that all our pupils are taught a broad and balanced curriculum, with the key skills and knowledge to support their future learning to ensure all pupils have the opportunity to reach their potential. Our SEN pupils access learning at an adapted level dependent on individual needs. Some children have a personalised curriculum which is tailored but based around whole class learning wherever possible and also follows their individualised 'Passport to Success'. Accessibility across our school can be seen via our whole school provision maps based on the four broad areas of need and our EAL provision map. Cognition and Learning Needs Physical and Sensory Needs Social, Emotional and Mental Health Needs Speech, Language and Communication Needs English as an Additional Language (EAL) Underpinning our intended curriculum and deeply rooted in our ethos is the wellbeing of our pupils. For our pupils to access the curriculum, they must be in a nurturing and supporting environment with a rich cultural capital. Our curriculum celebrates a broad and enriched learning approach. Events such as 'International Day', led by the Geography lead, is a celebration of language, foods, music, different cultures and dances from across the world. Our Science Day, our Wellbeing days and our annual Art Gallery are other examples in which leaders join together to ensure our pupils' learning is extended beyond the classroom and their experiences are widened. Our curriculum design incorporates a therapeutic behaviour approach and this is echoed through our whole school ethos, The South Hill Way which links to British citizenship.

Early Years Foundation Stage Early Years Vision Children in Early Years are valued as unique individuals. The stimulating environment is enhanced to reflect their interests. Our Early Years provision develops the building blocks in learning in preparation for Year 1. The Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) is how the Government and Early Years professionals describe the educational stage in your child’s life between birth and the age of five. Reception is the final year of this stage. This is a very important stage as it helps your child get ready for the next stage of school as well as preparing them for future learning and successes. There are four guiding principles which shape practice in the Early Years at South Hill. These are: • Every child is a unique child, who is constantly learning and can be resilient, capable, confident and self-assured • Children learn to be strong and independent through positive relationships • Children learn and develop well in enabling environments with teaching and support from adults, who respond to their individual interests and needs and help them to build their learning over time. Children benefit from a strong partnership between practitioners and parents and/or carers. • Children develop and learn at different rates. The framework covers the education and care of all children in early years provision, including children with special educational needs and disabilities (SEND). The three prime areas are most essential for building your child’s capacity for learning and ensuring that they are able to thrive. These are: Communication and language Physical development Personal, social and emotional development Succeeding within the prime areas will help children to develop skills in four specific areas. These are: Literacy Mathematics Understanding the world Expressive arts and design Communication and Language: involves giving children opportunities to experience a rich language environment; to develop their confidence and skills in expressing themselves; and to speak and listen in a range of situations. Physical Development: involves providing opportunities for children to be active and interactive and develop their co-ordination, control and movement. Children are supported to understand the importance of being active and making healthy choices in relation to food. Personal, Social and Emotional Development: involves helping children to develop a positive sense of themselves and others; to form positive relationships and develop respect for others. Children learn social skills and how to manage their feelings; to understand appropriate behaviour in groups and to have confidence in their own abilities. Literacy: involves encouraging children to link sound and letters and to begin to learn to read and write. Children are given opportunities to explore a wide range of reading materials to ignite their interests. Mathematics: involves providing children opportunities to develop and improve their skills in counting, understanding and using numbers, calculating simple addition and subtraction problems and using mathematical language involving shape, space and measures. Understanding the World: involves supporting children to make sense of the world in which they live and their community through opportunities to explore, observe and find out about people, places, technology and the environment. Expressive Arts and Design: involves enabling children to explore and play with a wide range of media and materials, as well as providing opportunities and encouragement for sharing their thoughts, ideas and feelings through a variety of activities in art, music, movement, dance, role play and design and technology. EYFS Overview EYFS Curriculum Ambitions Long Term Plan At South Hill, children in the EYFS learn by playing and exploring, being active, and through creative and critical thinking, which takes place both indoors and in our outdoor environment. Your child will be learning skills, acquiring new knowledge and demonstrating their understanding through the seven areas of learning. The areas of learning are all important and are interconnected. Pupil Voice Florence - I like school and playing with my friends Ezra P - I like playing cars with Jack Jack - I like numbers learning and Maisie mountain writing Adriti - I like to do drawing with Elsie, I draw all my family.
