 Hello all,  It was lovely to welcome the new Reception class this week. We were very impressed with how calm and engaged in play the children were on their first days of school. The children are slowly becoming familiar with the new routines and new friendships are being established. We have enjoyed singing and story time together. The class took part in PE sessions with Mr Mills and the music lesson with Mrs Lawrence which were lots of fun.  Each week Reception class will take part in three PE sessions  ( Monday, Wednesday, Thursday) and on Tuesdays the children will be joining the whole school for the music assembly and will have a music lesson.  Next week Reception class will start Little Wandle Letters and Sounds Phonics programme and will take part in daily maths sessions.  Please remember to bring named welly boots next week if you haven't done it yet.  Have a lovely weekend!

This week, the children have been busy exploring all the exciting areas of our setting, from our  cosy book nook to the outdoor play space. They’ve enjoyed a variety of hands-on experiences designed to spark curiosity and build confidence – from messy play and sensory activities to role-play and construction.  This term, we’re excited to introduce Montessori activities into our Foundation. These special activities are designed to help your children develop essential skills in a fun, hands-on way. What are Montessori activities? Montessori activities are carefully chosen tasks that encourage children to learn by doing. They focus on fostering independence, concentration, and practical skills—all while making learning feel like play! Here’s how these activ...
