Hi. We run two separate sessions at my nursery. The older children are pre-school, aged between 3 and 4. The younger children start at 2 and a half and turn 3 when they are with us. We have truly begun to embrace the new EYFS for this September, particularly in terms of our provision. We have purchased lots of storage units and have made almost all our resources self-selection.

I am hoping to access some Graduate Leader Funding in September which I can spend on resources to enhance our provision. I noticed a review posted on the FSF in May 2009 about a home /school resource - Firm Foundations produced by the Fischer Family Trust (Not sure how to link the review to this thread?). I was just wondering whether any one had purchased the packs and if so what do you think of them as a home school activity? Thanks!
