Our topic this half term is:

What Are We Celebrating?

In this topic the children will be learning:

To develop an understanding that not everyone celebrates the same festivals. We will be talking about what and how we celebrate different celebrations. We will also be performing our Christmas show in December for our families.

Time table of important information

Once all children are settled, this will be our timetable of when your child will need their PE kits, when books will be collected and when books will be sent home. We do not start phonics straight away and there will be a phonics workshop for you to attend. In this, we will share with you, how your child will be learning phonics and ideas on how you can help at home.

Phonics book

There will not be a new sound in on Fridays, however your child will still have their phonic book sent home so you are able to practice over the weekend if you would like to, or catch up on the sounds learnt over the week.

In Reception we try to access the outdoor provision no matter the weather. Please could your child bring in their own pair of named wellies that are able to stay in school under their peg.
