During 2025-26, news will be shared here each week.

Welcome to Reception! We love to play and explore, in our Indoor and Outdoor areas! In the first half of the Autumn term, our topic will be 

All About Me 

We will be talking about our favourite things, our homes, our family and our feelings. 

This week, we enjoyed our first week of full days together. We've been talking about our favourite things and celebrating what makes us unique and special. We shared Super Duper You by Sophy Henn to help us to talk about all the brilliant things that make us....us! 

Our Family 

This week, Reception really enjoyed sharing their family photographs with Mrs Varty and Miss Wilson! We talked about important members of our family and our pets. Reception listened to the story All Kinds of Families, also by Sophy Henn and learnt about how families can be different.

Houses and Homes 

Over the next two weeks, Reception will be talking about their homes and who lives in their house. We introduced the topic by sharing the story of The Three Little Pigs. We expressed our imaginative ideas through our Drawing Club sessions and in construction activities. We picked up Mrs Varty's Three Little Pigs song really quickly-well done, Reception!
