Reception Summer 26

Reception enjoy taking part in their balance bike lessons on a Monday afternoon with Andy. They play balancing games before riding on the balance bikes

Reception loved going to the Rising Sun Country Park with our Nursery friends.  We enjoyed travelling on the big coach and had fun exploring  in the woods looking for minibeasts. We found plant bugs, cucumber spiders, aphids, water lice, woodlice , ladybirds, butterflies and beetles.  All of that exploring had made us very hungry and we were very excited to eat our packed lunches before we went back to school. 

Reception have enjoyed playing lots of Maths games this week.  We played the racetrack game where we had to roll the dice and see who was the first to get to number 20 and we sorted numbers into odd and even sets. We know that the number is even if all the counting objects have a friend.

We loved walking around Kenton to look for people who help others as their job.  We saw a postman, bus drivers, taxi drivers, shop workers and council workers. 

On Wednesday we came to school dressed up ready to work.  Some of us were firefighters, doctors, nurses, bin men, vets, teachers, builders, police officers and pharmacists. We looked fantastic and were very helpful to our friends.  

Reception class have loved having different people to visit the class whose job is to help others. We liked climbing on the huge fire engine, enjoyed trying on the police officer's uniform and had fun playing with our teddies when the student doctors came in for our 'Teddy Bears' Hospital' workshop.

Reception have loved being back at school playing in the sunshine with our friends. We have been learning about the Muslim faith and have started to listen to stories about our topic of 'People Who Help Us'.
