In Reception, we have lots of fun, try our best and start each day with a smile on our face! I hope you are looking forward to starting school, where you will learn lots of new things and make new friends.
If you have any questions or simply want to get in touch to say hello, please email me:

Why do squirrels hide their nuts?
This half term, we’ll visit a woodland to hunt for autumnal treasures. Back in the classroom, we’ll watch what happens when frozen objects melt. Getting creative, we’ll press leaves into clay to make beautiful impressions, and we’ll trace the patterns on leaves. Things could get messy in our mud kitchen when we use different tools to dig, mix and pour. We’ll also enjoy making marks in the mud. Our maths skills will help us to count conkers, and we’ll use them to make different numbers. Using sticks, we’ll explore lengths and use the language of size. It will be lovely to curl up in the reading corner to enjoy autumnal stories and poetry.
Every Monday morning we will be visiting our wooded area - 'The Spinney' - to do some outdoor learning and exploring! This is a lovely opportunity for children to get hands-on with nature.
Please ensure that children have wellies and come dressed in suitable outdoor clothing on this day.
We have PE every Friday. Children will need to come to school dressed in their PE kits.
Please see the videos below for advice on how to form the letter correctly.
