Stars of the week: Mia and Arthur
This week we have been learning about the Apollo 11 mission to the moon and different planets in the solar system. We have made some paper mache planets and painted them.
Well done to Mia and Arthur. Arthur has been asking lots of questions about the different astronauts and how the solar system started and Mia has written a fantastic story about aliens.
Stars of the week: Marley and Jeremiah
This week we started our new topic all about space. We have transformed our home corner into a space area with a rocket, the planet Venus and a Reception space centre. The children have really loved learning about the different things we find in space and all about the different planets.
Stars of the week: All of Reception
This week all Reception children put on a spectacular Collective Worship for the rest of the school. Here are some videos below. They loved sharing everything they had learnt about animals and plants and how they grow!
Stars of the week: Joyce and Romeo
This week we have been singing the nursery rhyme Wiggly Woo, about a worm at the bottom of the garden. We looked at some amazing gardens Wiggly Woo might like to have an adventure to and wrote some sentences about it.
Well done to Joyce and Romeo who wrote some fantastic descriptions.
Stars of the Week: Leo L and Freiya
This week the children have enjoyed learning all about King Charles ahead of the coronation this Saturday. We have been getting busy with lots of different coronation themed activities, from making peg board flags, creating a King Charles collage to re-enacting the coronation at the small world table.
Stars of the week: Zane and Arabella
We had a very exciting week visiting the Aquarium this week. We were able to see a whole range of different marine life from huge sharks to tiny clown fish. The children were all very well behaved for their first trip, well done Reception!
Well done to Zane as he wrote some fantastic instructions on how to plant a seed and to Arabella for her fantastic gymnastics.
Stars of the week: Harry and Elishua
It has been wonderful having the Reception children back after a restful Easter break. We have been starting our new topic “Look at the garden grow!” We went on a hunt around the playground to find things which grew and did not and made our very own garden centre in the home corner.
Well done to Harry and Elishua for getting stars of the week. I was very impressed by Harry making his name out of lego and to Elishua for trying so hard with his writing. 
Stars of the week: all of Reception!
Thank you to everyone for coming along to Reception’s collective worship and the Easter stay and play. It was a huge success!
Video coming soon!
Stars of the Week: Sadie and Leopold
This week we have been decorating some pebbles with uplifting words and pictures to spread positivity around the community.
I have also been very impressed with Reception because they have been fantastic with learning their number bonds to ten.
Well done to Sadie and Leopold for their fantastic effort and attitude toward learning this week.
Stars of the Week: Lourdes and Gabriel
This week we have been choreographing and performing our very own dances. Lourdes and Gabriel gave fantastic performances and have been trying their best all week. Well done!
We have been getting creative and making special family cards to give to someone special this weekend.
