We are looking forward to a fun filled year of learning and experiences. This year we are taking a different approach to the curriculum, using the children’s many fascinating interests as our lead. Alongside visits from the Fire Services, Guide Dogs and trips out in our local community, the children will share a wealth of new experiences with each other and us.

They will continue to develop their skills in reading and writing through the RWI scheme and flourish as mathematicians.  They will develop their team work and individual skills in PE and gymnastics.  They will learn about looking after the World and being a child of God. They learn that we are all unique and special and develop an understanding of their own values and the importance of respecting others.

We are looking forward to an exciting year ahead watching the children grow.

This week Reception have been reading ‘Pumpkin Soup’ by Helen Cooper. The children have produced some beautiful still life pumpkin pictures using oil pastels. They have also been exploring pumpkins: measuring, counting and exploring what is inside. At the end of the week, the children made some yummy pumpkin soup using the recipes and instructions they wrote. It was delicious!
