February – Caterpillars and Butterflies
It was Reception’s first class assembly. We performed a rhyme about caterpillars and butterflies and told our parents and everyone else in school about different things that grow and change. These are some of the caterpillars and shape butterflies we created

January – Balance Bikes
We have been having a great time learning how to ride balance bikes. Over the past few weeks we have developed our skills and are now much more confident riding around different courses. It was really good when we used the bikes in all the space on the big playground.

December – Christmas
Reception have been busy getting ready for Christmas and we are really excited about this time of year. We have had fun dressing up as different characters and making crowns like kings. We enjoyed our class party and had a special visit from Santa.

November – Celebrations
We looked at Bonfire Night, Diwali and Thanksgiving. We enjoyed hearing about the stories that are told and remembered and finding out what people do at these special times. Look at how creative we have been.

October – Halloween
Reception have been talking about Halloween and reading stories about witches and skeletons. We had fun measuring potions and being different characters. We had our own Halloween parties in the role play area and lots of us experienced our first school Halloween disco.

September – Starting Big School
We have had our first day in Big School. We enjoyed exploring the classroom and making friends. Everyone had a great day although it was quite tiring. We are looking forward to all the exciting things we are going to do and learn this year.
