Reception 2024 - 2025

Our teacher in Reception is Miss Johnson/Mrs Sumner and they are helped by Mrs Maddock, Miss Williams and Miss Bibi. 

It has been an exciting start to Reception and we are looking forward to teaching you this next year and hope you will enjoy your time in Reception.

Some work will be challenging, but it’s lots of fun too!

Welcome to Reception!

Seesaw

We update our Seesaw page on a daily basis with lots of photos and videos, so parents and carers feel connected to their child’s learning. Parents enjoy responding back with comments.

Getting to Know You!

We have spent the first half term getting to know each other and building up positive relationships. We have enjoyed various shared story sessions, which have focused around families, emotions and friendships. We have been expressing our own feelings in different ways and learning to consider the feelings of others.

Fabulous Feelings!

We have been sharing lots of stories all about emotions. We enjoyed reading Ruby's Worry and Find Your Happy. 

We have been engaging in lots of activities such as making play dough faces and using different self-regulation skills, e.g. flower breathing and yoga. We also enjoy using our feelings beach ball. Each day we ask each other how we are feeling. 

We started using My Happy Mind to talk through our feelings.
