The EYFS team would like to welcome all children, parents and carers to Reception. It has been lovely to see all the children settle into class, listening and following the routines and we have been so proud of them all. The children have enjoyed exploring the many areas of the classroom enjoying- the family home area, developing their fine motor skills with the magnetic tiles and playdough, making large models with the wooden blocks to making smaller ones in the creative area. The children have had the opportunity to also explore and enjoy the activities outside.
This term, the children will be learning about themselves, family and making friends, understanding similarities and differences. They will also be developing their independence and follow daily routines.
