Reception w/c 18th November 2019

Hello Everyone,

I am sure you will all join us in saying a massive "Well done" to all the children for their super performance in their first class assembly last Friday. Such confidence! We couldn't be more proud of them!

Our focus this week is a Reception, age appropriate, approach to mental health. We are using Paddington and Jenny Jigsaw to explore issues such as worry, self esteem, anger - calming down strategies and self regulation, sharing and negotiation skills, positivity and looking on the bright side! The children have been advising Paddington on ways to deal with these feelings and skills.

Thank you for all the amazing Time To Talk home learning that has been coming in - we aim to play the songs that the children listened to over the next few weeks. Do keep listening to different genres of music and encouraging children to appraise them, dance to them, sing along!

If your child is interested in learning a musical instrument, pop in to our office to find out more.

In preparation for Christmas we are starting to learn some Christmas songs which you may like to practice at home (they are easy to find on you tube). Away in a Manger, Little Donkey, It was on a Starry Night, We Wish You a Merry Christmas, Jingle Bells and Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer!

Tomorrow morning we will DEFINITELY be going to THS for our Science morning!

See you all later!

Mrs. Johnson and Mrs. Smith.
