Reception had a fun day on Friday finding out all about St George. We dressed in red and white, completed dragon sheets and made a knights helmet.
They were very excited all morning looking forward to them arriving . We hope that the family members enjoyed the visit.Â
The Reception children enjoyed sharing their lunchtime with their mum, grandmother’s or aunties today.
Today Reception have been celebrating how we all belong to God’s Family. We drew our picture onto a heart and then placed our heart in the middle. The other children told us how beautiful we are. We ended our activity with a song “God made me! “
We became scientist today to conduct an experiment to find out which drink is best for our teeth. We used chalk to represent our teeth (the children were not keen on Mrs Jilks pulling out one of theirs !) and put them into water, cola, milk and black tea. We put one in the cup without anything to use as our test. We are going to look at what has happened at the end of the week.

Reception have been exploring different occupations. We have been role playing in our Police Station. The children were very excited to investigate a robbery from the shed. After taking finger prints we found the thief!
In Mathematics we have been exploring numbers beyond 10 in a variety of different ways.
Reception have been enjoying a variety of activities when learning about traditional tales. They designed baskets for Little Red Riding Hood, wrote recipes and tasted porridge like The Three Bears, built houses out of straw, sticks and bricks like the Three Little Pigs and made puppets of the characters.  Below are just a few of the activities they enjoyed.

This week’s phonemes are  i,n,m.d We will practise these daily on Monday to Thursday and consolidate on Friday.
In our RE sessions this week we will be looking at the talents that God gave us. Please could you send in a photograph of your child doing something they are good at. This might be riding a bike, baking, dancing, football, colouring etc.
Below are a few photographs of our first week at school.
Thank you for your support.
We went on a walk to find some of the things that God created.
Today we picked the potatoes the we grew outside. We made potato salad and then ate it! Some of us enjoyed it, some of us didn’t.

Reception had a fantastic trip to Tesco yesterday which was linked to our healthy eating topic. The children got to look around the store and became staff members for the morning. They went behind the scenes to look at the stock and got very cold looking in the huge fridge! We hunted around the fruit and veg to find food on our checklists. We visited the bread, cheese and fish counters too. Some children were brave enough to hold a mackerel and a mussel! We finished off by sampling some of the fruit, veg, bread and cheese, delicious!
