Welcome to Reception!
Here you will find out all about our class and all the exciting things that we will be getting up to this year. Our class teacher is Mrs Booth and our Teaching Assistant is Mrs Lord-Jones and Miss Davis. We will also have Tom our specialist PE coach on a Wednesday afternoons.
Homework is set weekly on a Monday and consists of reading and Maths activities.
Reading Books should be kept and read at least 3 times before returning to be changed to ensure your child is as fluent as possible. Any home reading should be logged in your child's reading journal. Library Books are to be returned every Monday ready to be changed, we aim to have new books sent home by Wednesday each week, for you to read to your child to help them develop a love of reading.

Class Birthday Amazon wishlist
As a healthy school and one that loves books, we ask that if parent's would like to get a gift for the children in the class, that they choose a book for their child's class to present on their birthday which will have a special named book plate inside. Books can be chosen from our Amazon wishlist, which is also linked to our easy fundraising page, so benefits the children in more ways than one! https://www.amazon.co.uk/hz/wishlist/ls/CA71BXRV4EJ8?ref_=wl_share
