Reception 2024 - 2025

Reception have had a fantastic first full week at school, they have settled really well, and I am so proud of how they are coming into school each morning- even if a little tired  by the end of the week. I can assure you it has been all smiles and fun once in the classroom! It has been lovely to watch the children make new friends, explore the classroom and the wider school.   

This week, we have spent time beginning to establish some of the everyday rules and routines of the classroom with the help of Mr Potato Head. We have also been thinking about our feelings with the Colour Monster and will continue to work on our theme 'Marvellous Me' this term.  The children have also enjoyed lots of different fine motor control activities including some dough disco and finger puppet shows! 

We have also started our baseline assessments, working individually with your child. We have completed the communication, literacy & language and fine motor control assessments this week and will hopefully complete the maths early next week.  

Show & Tell - The children were excited to share their plans for the weekend with the rest of the class. Please feel free to email photos of the things they get up to so that they can talk about all the things they have done on Monday. It is a super way to encourage their speaking and listening skills. 

 

Just a couple of important reminders:  

Have a lovely weekend.  🙂
