Reception Fieldwork

19th September 2023Amanda Wallace

We had such a lovely visit to enhance our learning of our Expedition question , “What do stories tell us about Autumn?”

We had an amazing time hunting for the Gruffalo on the Gruffalo Trail and in the afternoon we were inspired by our beautiful surroundings and made some lovely nature art.

A special and enormous thankyou to all of our adults that joined us for the day. Without you, visits like this would not be possible for our children so huge thanks from all of us!

The children did amazingly well and we were so proud of them.

Tomorrow both Nursery (F1) and Reception (F2) will have a visit from The Yorkshire Owl Experience. This is a wonderful opportunity for them to see Owls close up and learn more about them to go with our current Expedition. If you would like to contribute towards the cost of this experience please see the link on Parent Pay. We cant wait to share the photos with you tomorrow.

Reception- Hooking into phonics!

19th September 2023Rebecca Carter

This week the children have been practicing hearing their first set of phonemes in words s/a/t/p, fast blending the phonemes to say words and at breaking down the phonemes in a word!

We have been writing the grapheme in lots of different ways to become more confident and remember how to form the graphemes correctly!

Reception Crew Norms

11th September 2023Rebecca Carter

Reception children have created the most beautiful Autumnal trees to show their Crew norms. The children shared their ideas and grouped them together to talk about our habits of work and learning. (HOWLS) We talked about what we need to do to be kind, work hard and get smart. We talked about our character traits that we are developing such as compassion and then wrote our ideas on the leaves. Here is our beautiful work.
