Default autumn display

hi, im going to be doing my first display and the theme is autumn, but this may be a silly question but do i need to write the word Autumn in capital letters or lower case letters, does thi matter in a pre school?

you always write in lower case unless there it is a proper noun. it matters hugely, theres loads of literature on this as there is on diplays!

Hi, as advised the seasons don't necessarily need a capital, unless the word begins a sentence.

Note that although capital letters are used for days of the weeks and months of the year, they are not needed for the points of the compass, or for seasons.
