A very warm welcome to Reception!
We hope you are all having lots of fun in the sun!
Our class page will be updated in September.
If you would like to have a sneak peak at what September will bring, please read our autumn newsletter and autumn skills and learning documents, which can both be found in 'files to download' at the bottom of this page. You will also find a virtual tour of our classoom to share with your child.
Below is some general information about Reception for 2025/26:
Keeping in touch
We encourage parents to please utilise their Tapestry log in which is our online learning journey in Reception. At the end of each week, an overview of all the exciting things we have engaged in will be uploaded on Tapestry for you to enjoy. There will also be wow moments uploaded throughout the week for individual children and we encourage parents to add their own wow moments from home which can be shared with the class.
PE
When the children are ready and settled into a routine, we will begin weekly formal PE session on a Wednesday afternoon. The children will be expected to get changed for PE in school, however this will be a gradual build up and staff will support the children. Please see our class newsletters for more information.
Homework
We believe in the importance of establishing a strong relationship between home and school. When ready, the children in Reception will have weekly homework where they can embed their learning and apply it at home. We ask that completed Homework books are returned to school every Thursday where they can be shared and a new challenge can be added, ready to take home on Friday. Again, when the children are ready, they will also take home new phonics books and a bedtime story book every Friday.
Thanks for your support,
The Reception Team
'We Care, We Learn, We Belong'
