Reception & Year 1

Welcome to Reception/Year 1. We hope you enjoy looking at all the things we have been doing :)

Just a few reminders:-

Reading books are changed every week. Please listen to your child read every night and sign the reading diary 😀 Children will also be given new sounds to practise at home inline with the sounds we have covered in school, please practise both recognising and writing these.

Please do not put drinks bottles, which should only contain water, into your child's book bag as they can leak and ruin books.

Please make sure that your child has a coat and wellies in school, this will allow us to spend more time playing outdoors when the weather is poor.

As you are aware PE days are on a Tuesday and Friday. During times of poor weather can we ask that children come in wearing a sweatshirt or a hooded jacket over their T-shirt and that they have a spare PE kit in class with their name on.

The Christmas Story

We love mud....

This week we had our first session of Forest School. We learnt about the different types of trees and bushes we have within our school. The children enjoyed playing outdoor games and making houses for the local hedgehogs.

Forest School

We have been reading Room on the Broom. As a treat for all their hard work during the first term we decided to let the children come in dressed as a character from the story. We had a lovely day doing activies related to the book and finished the afternoon with watching the movie with a nice treat.
