Reception children have been learning about Vincent van Gogh and have enjoyed looking at his artwork, particularly his Starry Night art. Children worked collaboratively to create a large class Starry Night and then children created their own Starry Night artwork.

Welcome back after the Easter break, we hope that you all had an enjoyable holiday!
Please can you send your child with a named water bottle, that they can refill and use in school. We ask that it is not metal please, as these can be heavy. Water bottles should be filled with water only.
During the summer term in Reception, our learning will be centred around the themes ‘No Place Like Home’ where we will be exploring different types of homes and unusual homes such as dens and caves. We will then move on to our new topic ‘Come Fly With Me!’ where we will be learning all about different countries in Asia. We will also learn about exciting events occurring during the term such as the 80th Anniversary VE Day celebrations and sports day. Throughout our learning, we will begin our learning with a story, which will allow our theme to flow between our 7 Areas of Learning.
Our learning continues to take place through a mix of adult-led and child-initiated sessions indoors and outdoors.
Please ensure that children are wearing the correct PE kit on Monday and Thursday and that each item of clothing is clearly labelled with your child’s name and class. Can we please remind parents that no jewellery should be worn in school with the exception of stud earrings, and in line with Health and Safety guidelines these should not be worn on PE days. Children may be asked to remove earrings before PE sessions.
​
Children are thoroughly enjoying their ‘Wild Tribe’ sessions.
Class 1 – Friday Class 2 – Tuesday Class 3 – Wednesday
Please can we remind you that children should arrive at school in their uniform with their outdoor learning clothes in a bag. Please ensure the children have appropriate clothing as we will be outdoors for the majority of the afternoon for our Wild Tribe sessions
​
Our ‘Wild Tribe’ sessions allow the children the time and space to develop skills, interests and understanding through practical hands-on experiences. These experiences will build self-esteem and independence through exploring and experiencing the natural world.
​
Phonics will continue to be an important part of our children’s learning where they will have the opportunity to practise and apply their phonic knowledge. As we spend two weeks learning 3 new phonemes, children will have 1 reading book linked to the sounds they are learning in class. This book is to be read over and over again to help build your child’s fluency in reading along with their comprehension. Therefore, your child may remain on the same reading book for 2 weeks.
We are continually in need of ‘spare uniform’. If you have any that your child no longer needs, we would be very grateful of any donations! Thank you to those parents who have returned any borrowed items or already donated uniform items already this year.
Should you have any questions or concerns, please do not hesitate to contact your class teacher, who will usually be available at the end of each day. We anticipate a busy and exciting term ahead and we thank you in anticipation of your continued support.
