Autumn 1 2025
Welcome to Reception!
We hope you have had a fantastic summer. We can’t wait for you to start your journey with us.
We are looking forward to our first topic ‘Who am I?’ which focuses on us getting to know all about your wonderful children.
Our key texts this half term are:
The Colour Monster Goes to School
What Makes You Do That?
In Every House, On Every Street
Three Little Pigs
Our Forest School day is Wednesday. Please bring a pair of wellies into school (preferably to keep in school) and bring a coat / waterproof clothing to change into if the weather is wet.
Our PE days are TBC - the children DO NOT need PE kit, we simply ask them to remove shoes and socks
