Reception had a fantastic time celebrating VE Day on Thursday!
We decorated our plates, joined the school in the hall for some singing, enjoyed some scones and juice and then went for a march around the yard
As part of our Creep, Crawl and Wriggle topic, Reception have been making their very own bug jars! We used our fingers to print bug shapes into our jars before giving each of our bugs legs, wings, antenna and faces to create different types of bugs
As part of our topic ‘Animal Safari’, Reception have been looking at how to take care of animals. We used the iPads to test our knowledge and look after our own pet.
Before the holidays, Reception were joined by their families to complete our sponsored 3km walk to raise money for hedgehogs!
We walked all the way to West Park and completed a Spring hunt and headed into the park to play, before heading back to school to complete our 3km.
We want to say a BIG thank you to all of our amazing Reception children and their families for taking part, and also raising money to support the hedgehogs – raising an amazing £589.29! Wow!
On Tuesday, Reception had a visit from Phillipa from The Word to teach us how to programme the Spheroes. We had so much fun learning to control them, race them, and even paint with them!
Reception have been learning all about 3D shapes in Maths, this morning we went on a ‘3D shape hunt’ outside to find all of the different 3D shapes we have in our outdoor area, we found so many!
On Friday, our friends from St Oswalds joined Reception for a morning of physical development. We had so much fun getting involved and trying out all of the activities. Well done everyone!
So impressed by our Reception children’s imaginative skills and Miss Bell’s, creating their own fruit characters using clay and natural materials.
As part of Reception’s topic ‘Ready Steady Grow’, we have been looking at the art work of Guiseppe Arcimboldo, who used fruit and vegetables to create portraits. We created our own portraits in class using apples, carrots, pears, oranges and bananas.
Can you eat a rainbow?
Some of Reception were braver than others!
