Today Reception had their very first Community Crew Meeting and what can I say?! Wonderful behaviour, stunning singing and beautiful work! The children were so kind and happy for their friends who had a special shout out. Here are our HOWL point winners and crew champions this week!
This week the children in reception enjoyed a hall session exploring movement. The children learned new words such as ‘balance’ and ‘control’ and had to use their bodies to use animal actions and balance in games. The children had lots of fun playing ‘The zookeeper!’ and making their bodies as tall and wide as they could and moving as fast and slow as they could! Here are some of our actions caught on camera!
This year, we are working hard to raise money to develop our reading for pleasure library so firstly, we would like to say a huge thank you for all your sponsors from the colour run which will go along way to helping us!
Secondly, we still need your help! We would love for you to help us design the library based on the space we have to use which is the foyer area near the hall.
Please design your ideal library and share your plans with Miss Knowles in person or at [email protected] This is for everyone across school to get involved in! Please send your plans by 7th October.
We can’t wait to see your fantastic ideas which will help us design the perfect library!
On Wednesday 9th October the Reception and Nursery children will be partaking in a superhero sponsored walk because ‘Kindness is our superpower!’ The money raised will be to support the paediatric ward at Doncaster Royal Infirmary create a new parents room for parents of critically ill children. Please send your child in superhero themed fancy dress on Wednesday 9th. Sponsorship forms will be sent home with your child next week.
Many thanks for your ongoing support in your child’s learning.
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.
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!
