What a busy half term!

By Beech Class, in Reception - Wednesday, 12 February 2025

This term the children have been working incredibly hard! We have been learning about People Who Help Us. The children have really enjoyed this topic and have met lots of amazing people. We met the school cooks, a real life lollipop lady, a librarian and we got to explore our school and meet some of the staff who help us every day.

We also visited the Little City, we pretended to be different people who help us and got to pretend we had real jobs. The children loved this experience! We were even inspired by the cooks to make our own fruit kebabs. The children were great at trying new fruits and even learnt how to safely chop and prepare food. 

In Maths, the children have been learning how to make patterns, we really enjoyed this learning and made lots patterns in different ways. We have also been learning about longer, shorter, taller, heavier and lighter. 

We have also started to write sentences, this has been a little bit tricky but the class are very determined. We know we need to use finger spaces, a capital letter at the start and always remember a full stop!

Beech Class, you have worked incredibly hard this term and we are beyond proud of all of you. Well done, Beech Class!
