In Reception we welcome the youngest children into our school and provide them with a nurturing, happy and secure environment where they are able to learn and develop through a range of activities and experiences.

They grow in independence and confidence and by the end of the reception year they are equipped with the fundamental skills they need to progress successfully throughout the rest of the school.

Reception Stay and Play

-December 2016

On Tuesday December 12th our mums and dads came to play with us. Inside, we made reindeer cakes, decorated Christmas trees, made snowflakes, used the computers to draw Christmas pictures, made play dough characters for the nativity, wrapped presents, played with the Christmas nativity set, dressed up in Christmas outfits in the role play area and painted some Christmas lights using corks. Outside, we had a reindeer and sleigh for role play, a Christmas tree made from planks of wood for balancing, we made pine cone baubles, stick men and reindeer food.
