Mrs Kizielewicz, Mrs Sampson, Miss Fulcher and Miss Maxwell are also part of the Reception team.
The classes share a purpose built reception unit. We are an early excellence school and have set areas linked to the EYFS curriculum across the unit. We have a large outdoor learning space, rich with learning opportunities.
Important Information
As part of our learning, children take home reading books daily. Please share these at home with your child; he or she will have a reading diary you can write in. Please ask if you ever need any support.
We have PE on a Wednesday. Please make sure that you have a PE kit as we are encouraging our children to dress themselves independently.
We have Forest School on a Thursday. Please make sure that your child has warm clothes and a set of spare clothes that they can change into if they get wet. Here are some pictures of us exploring Forest School!
