"Hi, we are Kerry Kingfisher and Olly Owl. We love to get to know the Owls and Kingfishers and watch them learn and grow. Every Friday we get to go home with one of the members of our class to spend the weekend with them. We love sharing our adventures on our return to school!"

Teaching and learning in Reception
Take a look at our long term plan to see what we will be learning throughout the course of the year in Reception:
Medium Term Plans
You can find out more about what we will be learning each half term by looking at the medium term plans below:
Phonics
This term we have started a new phonics scheme called Essential Letters and Sounds. We want the children to practise reading their book 4 times across
the week working on these skills:
decode
fluency
expression
This will help them to read more fluently.
To help your child with pronouncing the pure sounds correctly watch the videos below by following the link.
Class Countries
Every year group in our school learns about a different country. By the end of year 6, the children have complied a Passport to the World containing the learning they have done about each country. In Reception, we will be learning about London and China. We will compare London and Beijing and look at festivals we celebrate in the UK and those which are celebrated in China.
