Welcome to Reception

I am Mrs Burnett and am delighted to be teaching Reception this year.

In our class we are supported by Mrs Bliss, Miss D'Arcy and Miss Corekci.

In order to support your child at home with their learning please:

• Read with your child as much as possible, sharing stories is a wonderful way to encourage a love of reading. 
• Check our Tapestry online learning journal as often as possible, this will show you all of the wonderful learning your child has been doing and enable you to ask them about it! Engage your child in conversation with "I saw a photo of you doing...", this will help support your child's communication and language development. 

In Reception we follow 2 basic principles-we look after our classroom by remembering to Choose It, Use It and Put It Away. We look after our friends by using Kind Hands, Kind Feet and Kind Words.

Each term we have a new topic which allows your child to build on their learning . These can be accessed using the link below for half termly topics. The learning prepares your child for the transition into Year 1. 

We complete drawing club, Maths and learning journal activities weekly and have a daily RWI phonics lesson. Resources for phonics are given weekly for you to complete with your child at home or you can print at home using the link below. This work is displayed within their books and sometimes displayed on tapestry too.
