Birch class have been trying very hard to be brave when coming to school so far this week. We have enjoyed investigating our new environment, finding the resources we like the most and making some new friends within the whole of reception. In our phonics lessons, we have started to learn some new phonemes, matching objects to initial sounds and writing our graphemes. We have also had fun playing a new game called wonky donkey, where we have to listen very carefully so we can find out who pulls our tail to wake us up! Next week we have asked Mrs Kirby if we can do some more modelling in our creative area so watch this space to see some of our marvellous creations. 

WOW Ash Class! Your first week in Reception is over and you have been amazing. 

All of the adults are so impressed at how well you are coming into class & even when we might get a little upset, we soon wipe the tears and enjoy the day. 

We have had a great week meeting the new teachers, exploring our classrooms and investigating our outside area. 

This week we found that our planting area had overgrown and we found lots of vegetables. We took them inside, chopped them up and some of us even tried them for the first time too ! 

Well done for a great first week. We can't wait for next week, well done Ash Class! 

Fire and Ice 🔥 🧊 have returned for one more performance and what a performance it was. 
The bands manager (Miss Free) pulled the band along on their very own tour bus.

The whole of Nursery and Reception cheered them on while they sang us some songs. 

Well done Fire 🔥 and Ice 🧊 

Fairlands Festival 2023!

WOW! What a fantastic morning we have had already. The children lined up, went through security whilst having their tickets stamped and then recieved their 'Fairlands Festival 2023' wristband. 

The rain has held off all morning ! 

We have done so much already at our first Fairlands Festival. Glitter tattoos, making streamers, friendship bracelets, chill out tents, fruity drinks, slush puppies, ice-cream, popcorn, raving in the hall, dancing outside in the rain and so much more! 

We have had the best day (so far) and we continue this afternoon!
