The reception year has three classes with a maximum of 90 children in the year group. They have a lovely, stimulating environment which includes two outdoor play spaces one of which is undercover for those cold wet days! Outdoor learning is an important part of the Reception curriculum as it helps children to develop gross motor skills. The children are taught through a planned play based curriculum with times of whole class and small group teacher led lessons.
Over the school year the children cover a range of topics. In the Autumn term the topics are called “All about me” and “Celebrations”. In the spring term the topics are “Ice worlds” and “Growing”. In the summer term the topics are “Fairytales” and “Seaside.”

World Book Day March 2024
What fun we had yesterday for World Book Day!!! The day started being allowed to come into school in our pyjamas. We all had great fun making our Story Boxes at home which we then displayed in the hall and we all got to wander round and look at our own creations and those from the other year groups.
We found some very different places to read and spent the day enjoying books and reading and finished with a hot chocolate and biscuit treat!!! We wish it could be World Book Day every day!!!!
