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!

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!
What a wonderful community crew meeting we have had today! The children absolutely blew me away with their explanations of beautiful work, their shout outs for each other and their excitement of each other’s achievements! They really are a great reception crew! Huge congratulations to Finley and Freya for being HOWL point winners this week! An even bigger congratulations to our first crew champions of the spring term Mason and Reuben! You make us all so proud everyday and your kindness and beautiful work really shines! What role models!
We had a great afternoon learning about the secrets of sleep and a great bedtime routine. We were so lucky that lots of grown ups came to support us. We read some stories, had some hot chocolate and biscuits, practised brushing our teeth and enjoyed relaxing together.

Thanks so much to all of the children and grown ups that made it so lovely āŗļø

I know that many parents are aware that we are changing how we are supporting children with their reading, moving forward. Please read the attached letter and complete the google form above.
As soon as a parent has signed the google form to say that they agree, your child will come home with their set of reading books, which will be changed on a Friday from now on.
In the meantime, please donāt worry that you donāt have school books over the weekend because any books that you read will count towards your school reading challenge.
Thank you for your support with this change
Reception family learning is onĀ Wednesday 15th January. Please send your child into school wearing their pyjamas, dressing gowns, normal school shoes and coat.Ā Do notĀ send your child in slippers as we will still be accessing outdoor play.Ā
Our family learning session is fromĀ 2pm in the School Hall. We will be reading stories, singing songs, explore what good oral health is and talking about the importance of a good night sleep. We hope that all children will have a member of their family to join us.Ā
We look forward to seeing you there.

Please find below the parent overview for our EYFS Spring expedition ‘ See how things grow’ . The children will be exploring and answering the question ‘How do things grow and change?’ We look forward to our learning journey this term.
