We have enjoyed doing lots of fun maths activities this week. We have loved doing some practical things and we were being human scales and finding things that were heavier and lighter.
We had so much fun and it was lovely to hear the children using the correct mathematical vocabulary in the lesson, but then in their play too.
Well done everyone

On Tuesday we designed our own plant pots and critiqued them so that it would be our best work, thinking about a beautiful design and keeping it neat. On Wednesday we had so much fun painting our own plant pots based on our designs, we worked hard to make sure they matched our designs and used fine paintbrushes to make sure we could get all the details on.
Well done to these children for showing us all the character traits of being a Crew champion. You deserve this and we are so proud of you.

Well done to these children for being our HOWL point winners this week. Keep up the great work!
Mrs Wallace and Mrs Jones.
Thank you to everyone who took part in the first activity of the week; we have had some fantastically creative work handed in! Are you ready for challenge two?
Maths is around us and we are constantly using language linked to maths in our everyday life. Can you create a poster that celebrates math vocabulary?
Your task is to create an A to Z poster! I wonder how creative you can make it….can you add images for each word? Which colours will you use?
Here is an example below although I know our children can do much better!
Well done to Adam who shared this amazing work for activity 1!
This week in PE the reception children have been using their bodies to balance and travel in different ways. The children worked really hard to make shapes using their bodies thinking about how they could make wide, tall, thin, small, curved and linear shapes. Here are some of our snapshots!
Maths Week 2025 is here, and we’re kicking things off with an exciting home learning challenge! This is your chance to get creative, have fun with numbers, and showcase your mathematical thinking.
For our first home learning challenge, we’d like you to choose a number and create a poster displaying different ways to represent it. You can show your number using:
We can’t wait to see your fantastic ‘Ways to Show a Number’ posters! Get your thinking caps on, grab your pencils, and start creating.
Happy Maths Week!
A huge congratulations to our HOWL point winners Renee and Alicja and our Crew Champions Blossom and Holly! They have shown kindness and are working hard in phonics and with their confidence in all that they do. The reception crew are super proud of you!

This week in PE the reception children have been practicing the skill of dribbling a ball. The children listened carefully, following instructions to take it in turns to dribble the ball and score points with their partners! Here are some of our skillls in action!
