Outdoor Learning
As part of the EYFS curriculum we explore the natural areas around school creating various forest arts and developing our knowledge and understanding of the world. We will be outdoors during all four seasons. Children need a waterproof outfit (such as a puddle suit) that they can wear over their school uniform, as well as a pair of wellies. These can be named and left in school.
Fitness Friday
In reception classes, we have Fitness Friday. The children can wear their P.E kit (including trainers) to school and wear them for the whole day. We will begin this on week 2 in September.
Break time
All children in reception are given a piece of fruit as a snack during the day so there is no need for parents to provide a snack.
As the weather gets colder please make sure that children bring a coat to wear at breaktime as all children are expected to be outside.
Reading at home
We thought it might be a good idea to share how to help your child with reading at home. We ask you support your child by reading at home at least 4 times a week and record it in their yellow reading diary. This doesn't have to be a long task - little and often is key! We have a lovely selection of books in our classroom, as well as in the school library. Thank you for your continued support.
Water bottles
Please ensure your child has a drinks bottle in school every day filled with water.
