Our pictures tell 1000 words...........

It's clear to see from our photos this week that Reception LOVE learning!!!!!!!
Look just how busy we are.............

Outdoor learning is VERY important to us!








Power Maths patterns.


Inspired by Year 3 and their Rainforest assembly.



Collaborative learning about the Rainforest.






Physical development........







Repeating patterns.



A reminder that NEXT FRIDAY, 8th April, is our class assembly. Please come and watch us in the school hall at 9:15am. We will be holding our Royal Banquet/Ball on this day too as we had to cancel it previously, so all children can come to school wearing their king/queen/knight/princess costume. 

For home learning this week, can you make a cake or fairy cakes for our banquet with a Royal theme?

"I'm walking on sunshine, woo hoo, and don't it feel good!"

We love nothing more than to take our learning outside, and on such a glorious day too!


Making a trap for the big bad wolf!





"We want to make the longest train track in the world!"


A rabbit warren for the Easter Bunny, then a chicken coop.


Houses for the Easter Bunny.......





I will give it a try...........great job!


Vehicles, robots, ships, rockets, transformers, machines........there is no end to the possibilities for design and creation with lego.

Let's get creative.........



Just a few pictures as we continue our theme about food, gardening and Spring. The children are absorbed and inspired deepening their own independent learning through play and language.

Special requests: we would really love any donations of junk modelling, ribbon, buttons, writing paper and envelopes, shells, keys, nuts/bolts and screws...............all greatly received and appreciated!

Many thanks,

Reception - Tuesday 1st March 2022 - please read and share!

 




Welcome back to you all!

We have been overwhelmed by all the homelearning that has taken place over the half term break and it will take us a few days to share them all! Super stuff!



A reminder that Thursday is World Book Day and children may come to school dressed as their favourite book character and bring the book along to share too! It is also PACKED LUNCH WRAPPED AS A BIRTHDAY PRESENT - NO HOT DINNERS!

Friday we will be visiting the planetarium in the school hall so NO HOT DINNERS! Packed lunch required.

Check the school calendar for our new class assembly date.

I have been made aware that there have been a lot of messages on your group chat about the arrangements for next Tuesday's exciting visit to experience the Mars art installation! I was waiting until we returned to clarify final details.

Please rest assured that any school trip we plan is thoroughly risk assessed and we are all highly experienced in leading educational and residential trips. A consent form does NOT need to be filled out because this trip is covered under the Local Visits Permission slip you signed at the beginning of the year.

ALL RECEPTION CHILDREN TO BE DROPPED AT THE CORN EXCHANGE BETWEEN 8:45 AND 9:00 AM ON TUESDAY MORNING. We will then be meeting Pre-School there for our session. A coach has been arranged to transport us back to school. We will be back in school for normal lunchtime.

I am sure you will agree that this is a fantastic opportunity for the children and a one off experience! School uniform should be worn. You can choose to send your child to the event with their bags or feel free to drop them off at school for their return. 

Updates and photos will follow in the next few days!
