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!

On Monday, Reception created some transitional art. We created pictures of Mary’s garden from the nursery rhyme ‘Mary, Mary Quite Contrary’ linked to our topic ‘Stories and Rhymes’. We used different materials and our imagination to create our own flowers and shells.
