Reception
Welcome to our EYFS unit. Our unit is a large and welcoming space in which our children play, learn and explore. We follow the EYFS 2021 Framework and our children are allocated to either the Rainbow or Sunshine Key Group.
Miss Hartley, Miss Hampson and Miss Mitchell work in our Reception class.
Throughout the day our children access a range of teacher led and child-initiated activities and challenges. We strive to develop independence and resilience in our children and create opportunities for them to practice new skills, work together and build on their prior learning.
We use the Little Wandle phonics scheme to systematically teach phonics and we use a range of resources to develop a mastery approach to maths. We access the outdoor area daily, changing into our wellies and wetsuits, and have a continuously available snack area.
Throughout the year we explore high quality texts, learn about the world around us including other cultures and festivals.
To support your child’s independence please make sure all items of shoes and clothing are labelled, your child has a bag of spare clothes (including socks) in school every day, and you encourage them to try to do things for themselves as much as possible!
