Welcome to our Reception page

Our topic this half term is based on the traditional tale of The Gingerbread Man. 

We have already enjoyed making and decorating our own gingerbread men and have discovered he has been sneaking into our classroom and causing mischief, so we have made some very informative Wanted posters to ensure everyone at school keeps their eyes peeled. 

We will be making maps, finding out about different animals that live on a farm, creating obstacle courses, and will enjoy plenty of activities to support our handwriting development such as threading, chalking and pegging, running, climbing and chasing.

The Numberblocks support our learning in many of our maths activities. We will be learning about subitising, counting and ordering numbers and at pattern, shape and size.

We have started our Phonics sessions with the Phase 2 letters and sounds. The parent page on the Little Wandle website has lots of useful information about our phonics programme:

The children have made such a positive start and it has been wonderful to start to get to know them, and you all as parents and families.

Please don't hesitate to catch us at the door at the start or end of the day or email me or the school office with any queries.
