Spring 1 2023 in Reception

Welcome back - and welcome to the Spring Term 2023

Please find below our topic web outlining all our learning intentions for the term ahead.

FOREST SCHOOL WILL BE EVERY THURSDAY from the first week back. Please can children arrive to school in their Forest School Clothing, e.g. old clothes with extra layers and waterproofs / wellingtons. Please also bring in spare/ change of clothes if they get particularly messy during the session. Making sure that EVERYTHING is named including the bag it is kept in. Not all children will be going out at the same time, some will not go until Thursday afternoon.

Some key dates for your diaries:

• 4th January - Dress as a Superhero day - Create your own Superhero...what superpowers do you have?
• W/C - 9th Jan - Artist visit in school to work with the children
• 13th January - Dreams Come True day (Whole School) What would you like to be when you are older? Come to school dressed as them for the day!
