Welcome to Kingfishers - Reception

 We are excited to welcome the children to Kingfishers class as we start our learning journey together. As the children settle into their new class we will be getting to know more about them. The children will talk about their feelings as we read a range of stories in class, making links to feelings and reflecting on their own experiences.

This half term our learning theme is “Growing and Changing”.

In reception the children will learn all about themselves and begin to look at plants and tree thinking about what they need to grow. 

Kingfishers will be focusing on fine motor activities as they practise writing newly taught sounds, forming letters correctly.

In RE we will focus on Christianity as we explore the following questions:

 “What makes people special?” 

In PE the children will practise a range of skills including underarm, overarm and chest passes to support them with invasion games.

In Maths the children will be exploring comparing, sorting and creating patterns.

  In PSHE the children will learn more about themselves and their relationships. Throughout all lessons we will think about core values and our My Personal Best values- curiosity and imagination.

We will use Tapestry to share your child's learning with you and to share important class messages. Please make sure you check the app regularly. Click here for Tapestry website  

Please make sure book bags are brought into school daily. Kingfishers have PE on Tuesdays and Wednesdays, please ensure your child has a PE kit with trainer in school each day. Please send your child to school each day with a coat due to the unpredicatable weather.

 Thank you

Mrs Grant and Mrs Thomas
