Reception Welcome

10th September 2024Amanda Wallace

Now that we are all settled into Reception. We will keep parents up to date with things that are happening in school through our class blogs. Today we wanted to share a few expectations that help to keep things running smoothly.

  • Please ensure all uniform is labelled with your child’s name. If it is not labelled staff will label it. This ensures we have minimal – no lost property in school
  • Please ensure children bring a bag to school each day to keep their belongings safe. Children are asked to keep many things safe in their backpack and it also helps children to carry all of their belongings at the end of the day (water bottles, jumpers, cardigans, art work, letters etc)
  • All children should bring a name labelled water bottle filled with water only every day
  • Please remember we have a no toys rule in school – please keep all toys/teddy bears etc at home
  • All children will need a change of clothes in their backpack in case of any accidents or getting wet or dirty during play

If you have any questions please do not hesitate to ask a member of the Reception team in person or contact us via email.

We are looking forward to a wonderful year in Reception with your child creating precious memories.

Reception- hooking into expedition!

2nd September 2024Rebecca Carter

Today the reception children hooked into their new expedition ‘Be kind’ exploring the question ‘How do we show we care?’ The children gave thought to how we can care in our school, home and further community. The children painted stones for their school kindness garden and had a wonderful day being a kind crew!

Reception celebrate Diversity!

17th July 2024Rebecca Carter

This week in reception the children have given careful thought to how they are all different and unique. The children celebrated this by talking about their favourite things to do, what is special about them and enjoyed many activities in provision. The children painted pictures using their unique fingerprints and handprints, painted and drew pictures of their families, friends, hearts and rainbows. We read together the Big book of families and Mixed.

 

Miss R transition day 2

11th July 2024Jayne Rodgers

We’ve had another awesome day working in our new classroom. We began and ended the day by sharing our reading books with our parents and carers and showing them our new classroom. We completed work on understanding British Values and how they help us to live safely and fairly in our country and designed characters for our new zones of regulation. Once again I was blown away by how the children have dealt with this huge change and with the work they have completed over the last two days. I really can’t wait to be your teacher. Thanks so much superstars!
