Little City Visit: A Superpowered Day of Learning and Play!

Our Nursery and Reception children had a truly unforgettable experience as we welcomed Little City into our school on February 14th. This exciting event, designed to complement our Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) topic "What is Your Superpower?", focused on the amazing people who help us in our daily lives.

From the moment the children stepped into the immersive Little City setup, their imaginations ran wild! They eagerly took on the roles of doctors, shopkeepers, firefighters, hairdressers, and more—exploring real-world careers in a playful and meaningful way. The hands-on activities not only sparked curiosity but also deepened their understanding of how different jobs contribute to our community.

"It was incredible to see how engaged the children were," said Miss Peace, EYFS Lead. "They were completely absorbed in their roles, using problem-solving, communication, and creativity to navigate the different professions."

The interactive experience allowed children to dress up, use realistic props, and engage in role-playing scenarios that brought their learning to life. Whether they were scanning groceries at the shop, putting out pretend fires, or caring for ‘patients’ in the hospital, the excitement was contagious.

Miss Thompstone, Nursery teacher, shared: "One child told me, ‘I want to be a vet when I grow up!’—seeing their aspirations take shape through play was truly heartwarming."

A huge thank you to our parents and guardians for their support in making this event possible. Your contributions helped bring this wonderful learning opportunity to our children, and we hope they came home buzzing with stories about their day in the Little City!
