Welcome to the Reception Class

General Information

The  Reception Class is  taught by Mrs Slater with lots of help from Miss Richardson and Miss Larkin the two Learning Assistants. Miss Richardson is in class every day and Miss Larkin works Monday to Wednesday.  

 All the children will take a new book home to read on a Tuesday so please have their reading diaries in book bags every Tuesday. Please write in the reading diaries so we know you have heard your child read and practised the words that we have sent home. It is extremely important that children are heard to read or read to at home every day. It only has to be a few pages but little and often really is the key!

Our PE days are Tuesday and Friday. Children need to have a full PE kit in school every day.  PE kit should include shorts or tracksuit bottoms, a white t-shirt or polo shirt and appropriate footwear for both indoor and outdoor PE.

This half term we will be learning about the Polar Regions.

You will find attached a plan of our learning for the next half term.  

Please, please, please put your child's name on EVERYTHING.  Children easily misplace clothing especially  when they changing for P.E. They will also need a water bottle in school everyday and this should also be named. The children are provided with fresh fruit and milk everyday. 

To find out more information about what we are learning this term please see the attached letter.
