Welcome Back!

May we take this opportunity to thank you for your support since your child started in Reception. We are absolutely delighted with how well the children have settled in and the progress that they are making.

On this page, you will see our learning themes for each half term, along with the half term Curriculum Overviews and Knowledge Organisers.

Reminders for learning this half term:

· All children will now bring home the book they have read three times in class on Fridays, and all books/reading packs will be collected back in on Wednesdays. Home Learning activities will be uploaded to Tapestry on Fridays and celebrated in class with the children the following week.

· Year R P.E. days are: Tuesdays and Thursdays. Your child will need to come to school wearing their PE kit on these days, with their school jumper or cardigan. It would be really useful if you could practise taking off/putting on jumpers, cardigans, coats, shoes and socks to support your child in being independent with these skills in school.

· Please could we kindly ask that you order school lunches online in advance with your child? It is a great help and prevents the children worrying about lunchtime.

· Children need to bring a warm coat every day please. As we enter the colder months, we continue to spend a great amount of time outside and we want the children to feel cosy and warm!

· For our morning snack time, please can we remind you to send your child with fruit or a hard piece of cheese in a labelled pot/fruit bag?

Thank you for your continued support. Please do not hesitate to contact your class teacher if you have any questions or queries throughout the school year.
