  Reading

All children in Reception will read on a Friday. Children will come home with Read Write Inc sounds to practice and learn at home each week. 

 PE Day 

PE day is on Friday. Please ensure children wear a suitable P.E. kit to school on Friday and make sure all jewellery is removed. Children will be taking part in physical activities indoors and outdoors so appropriate footwear is needed. 

 Rewards 

We have a whole school reward scheme, the OSCARs. Every week one child from each class is chosen to receive an OSCAR in our special assembly on Friday. Their certificate is displayed in the junior hall for everybody to see how well they've done until the following week when they can take their certificate home.

Autumn Term

Our topic this term is “Forces at the Funfair” Children will be learning all about the different forces different forces that we use such as ‘push/pull’ and magnetism and how these are used within a fairground setting. We will be designing and making a push/pull toy and a magnetic game to play at our end of term EYU Christmas Fair.

Learning through play

We encourage all our children to be independent learners so sometimes your child may come home with a messy uniform. This shows that they have had a busy day learning lots of new skills.
