Welcome to our Reception Class Page!
Happy New Year to you all!
We hope you have had a wonderful and relaxing break over Christmas and New Year. We are excited to begin a new term with reading as a big focus!
Children will be expected to read a minimum of 4 times per week and have their reading records signed. Those children who do this will be entered into our termly prize draw!
Our topic in Reception this half term is SEASONS
Check out the curriculum overview to see what exciting things we have planned this year. The Spring 1 overview goes into more depth about what outcomes we will be helping your child achieve by February half term.
Reminders:
- We ask for a snack contribution of £2 per week per child payable every Monday morning. This is to give children a wide variety of choices for snack and to ensure they try as many new tastes and textures as possible.
- Please send your child into school with their own clearly labelled water bottle, school do not provide or sell water bottles and learning is thirsty work!
- Please ensure coats, hats, scarves and cardigans or jumpers are clearly labelled with your child’s name.
- Reading books will be changed each MONDAY. Book bags should still come into school each day. Please aim to read with your child each evening and comment in their reading records. Snuggle up before bed and enjoy a story together.
- PE day is Monday. Children are to come into school in their PE kit and pumps must be left in school for them to change into. PE kit is navy shorts or jogging bottoms, a white t-shirt and their school cardigan or jumper over. We have seen an increasing number of children wearing branded tracksuits in a variety of colours. We kindly ask that even if the tracksuits are navy, children wear the school PE kit.
As always, thank you for your continued support.
