Reception Class Blog 24-25

Check out what we have been doing in class:

• Friday 11 April 2025 Scientific Progress This half-term, Reception Class has been having lots of fun while learning new skills as they investigate a range of scientific phenomena!
• Thursday 20 February 2025 Around the World We have been ‘Around the World’ during Spring 1, and have been learning about different cultures and traditions. From different clothes worn to traditional food eaten, we have experienced a little taste of the exotic. This topic is particularly important for Reception as so many of our children have links with other countries and we really wanted to acknowledge these links. We kicked things off by putting our names on our World Map, just so that we can see our place in the World.
• Friday 20 December 2024 Run, Run, As Fast As You Can… This half-term, the Reception class has hit the ground running, learning about various celebrations and special events. The children created colourful odd socks for Anti-Bullying Week, designed their own road signs for Road Safety Week, made party hats for Rainbow Bear’s birthday party, and enjoyed celebrating Christmas Jumper Day. They also had a festive lunch and went on a trip to see ‘Wolf!’ at the Northern Stage.
• Friday 25 October 2024 'Once Upon a Time...'
• Wednesday 25 September 2024 Brave Beginnings The children have gotten off to a great start in Reception and are learning to become “Brave Bears”. From visiting for a few hours a day, they are now managing full days of phonics, literacy, language & maths activities! Of course we always find time to explore their interests in their play and have lots of fun, but you better believe we are working hard. Everyday we are working towards being good listeners, kind friends, and more independent in our learning. We are off to a very positive start – maybe our next Super Learning Power will be Positive Penguins!
