Reception
Welcome to Reception Class!
We are really looking forward to the second half of the Spring Term in Reception Class and can't wait to enjoy lots of exciting activities together. Our children have had a fantastic first term at school and we are really proud of how well they have settled into our St Stephen's family. As always, please let one of the Reception Team know if you have any questions at all- we are here to help.
Our new theme is 'Before Our Time' and we are really looking forward to exploring life in the past. We will use the story of Cinderella as a basis for our discussions and learning. This is because the original versions of the story originate all the way back to the 17th century when life would have been very different to how it is now. We will consider why the jobs that Cinderella needed to do were so tiring and hard. We will look at why a text message wasn't sent out to invite everyone to the ball! We will consider why Cinderella didn't travel to the ball by car! Finally, we will look at the clothes that everyone wore to the ball and how they have changed.
Our Class Gallery is also lovely to browse through and will be added to over the coming weeks. It provides a wonderful opportunity for you to discover what your child has been learning in Reception.
We hope that you enjoy browsing through our page and that it provides you with an insight into how each day is a wonderful journey of learning, exploration and fun!
The Reception Team- Mrs Powell, Ms Rennolds and Miss Finch
