Reception

 

Welcome to Reception!
 

Reception Class is taught by Mrs Davison (Monday and Tuesday) and Miss Green (Wednesday, Thursday and Friday). Our class are brilliantly supported by Mrs Hindle, our full time TA, and Mrs Sharkey who supports Guided Reading, Phonics and Intervention Groups. Mrs Hindle also works as a lunchtime supervisor so the children spend their lunchtime with a familiar face outside too! 

                          

                                                   
Important Information:
 
Mondays are our Show and Tell session - please see our class rota to see when it is your child's turn! 
Our P.E days are Wednesday and Friday! In Reception the children bring their P.E kit into school and get changed before each P.E lesson. When they move to Year 1 they will arrive at school in their P.E kit! 
Fridays we take part in our Library and Forest Friday sessions! The children take part on a fortnightly basis, either visiting our beautiful school library with Miss Green for a relaxing read and book change, or having fun in our vast school grounds taking part in Forest School activities with Mrs Hindle. What a lovely end to the week! 
 
Parental Support:
We value the support from our families and know that the relationships we build throughout this first year in school have a wonderful impact on each child's learning and development. We have an 'open door policy' which means that we are always more than happy to help and talk about anything regarding your child. 
 
During this first year in school your child will develop so many new and exciting skills, one of which will be learning how to read. We follow the Little Wandle Phonics and reading scheme.
Please foster your child's love and enthusiasm for reading by sharing books with them every day. Little and often is the key! As your child begins to develop their phonics skills they will want to share these with you, we would very much encourage you to get stuck in and engage in their learning with them as much as you can as this will really support their eagerness to learn. 
 
Don't forget to visit your Dojo app (existing parents only) for our frequent updates, photos and weekly newsletters keeping you in the loop with all of the exciting things your child has been up to in school! 
 
Thank you so much for your support smiley
