  Our daily homework is to read to an adult at home and watch the phonics video sent on Class Dojo. We send reading books home each day. Please write a comment in your child's reading diary each time they read and return to school daily. 
Our PE and Forest School day is Wednesday. Suitable clothing and footwear will be needed. 

Our EYFS Curricular Goals

Our curricular goals provide a stimulus to enhance the children's imagination, creativity and curiosity in Reception. We follow children's interests and plan various enhancements to the continuous provision that enable children to develop the skills required to achieve the EYFS milestones.

Our Learning in Reception

We teach phonics through formal Read Write Inc. sessions and Maths through maths mastery sessions. We enhance the learning environment with activities to support children's next steps. We like to explore the learning environment inside and outside in our independent learning time. We go outdoors in all weathers!

Take a look at our fantastic learning environment...

'Welly Wednesday!'

We go into the Forest School area every Wednesday. We wrap up warm and wear sensible shoes and waterproof coats. Each week we complete exciting activities in the Forest School. These activities promote our resilience, problem solving and team work skills. Visit our Class Dojo page to follow our Forest School learning journey.

Our learning journey so far...

Our first week went amazing! We settled in and learned the routines of the day.

W.C: 14th September: This week we are focussing on our fine motor skills. We have really tried hard to challenge ourselves and use tweezers, flappers, Dough Disco, and small tools to strengthen our grip and ready our finger muscles for writing!

Magic Number Time!

(We even had a practice at forming the number ourselves!) 

W.C: 21st September 2026

We have focussed on our Phonics and Fine Motor Skills this week. Look at our brilliant pencil grip and formation of letters!

We have learned m, a, s, d, t, i, n in Freddy Phonics this week. Fred frog was really proud of us! 

We have enjoyed representing numbers to 5 in maths this week! We are also getting confident with our transitions from the carpet to our chairs! Well done Rabbits & Hares!
