Monday 6th January 2025
A very happy new year to all and welcome back to the start of the first of our Spring terms (although Spring does feel a little way off still!). We hope that you are all well rested after the exciting and often busy Christmas break. Our topic this term is 'In the Jungle'. Please see the topic web below for an overview of some of the learning that we will be covering this term. We are once again looking forward to a busy term ahead.

We hope you had an enjoyable and restful half term. We are really looking forward to the second half of the Autumn term. This term is one of our busiest terms in school and we have many events planned on our school calendar, just a few include: Remembrance Day, Odd socks day and our wonderful EYFS and Key Stage 1 Nativity (more information to follow shortly). Our topic this term is ‘High in the Sky’, please see the topic web below, outlining some of the activities we have planned.
We will continue to keep you updated on our learning via Tapestry and we would love you to add your child’s learning, experiences and achievements from home too.
Please do ask if you have any questions or concerns.

We are a Reception class.
Mrs Nicholson (Wed,Thurs,Fri) and Mrs Hickman (Mon, Tues) are our teachers. Our primary teaching assistants are Mrs Brichieri-Colombi and Mrs Warwick and Mrs Sullivan.
In Reception we learn how to play together, take turns and share fairly. We also learn how to look after each other and all the lovely things in our classroom. Our teachers helps us to develop early literacy, communicative and mathematical skills as well as having opportunities to develop creative and physical skills and develop an understanding of the world around us.
We are very lucky to have our own garden so that we can play and learn outside, as well as using the rest of the school grounds. We also have an adventure playground, a stage in the outdoor classroom and a large field to play on.
We have PE every Thursday . Please wear your PE clothes on this day.
We are looking forward to a fun and educational year.
