Reception
Learn to play, play to learn.
“No job is more important than working with children in the early years”
Development Matters, 2021.
Our passion is creating a stimulating, exciting and safe environment to ensure all children develop as independent learners. As the first class in our school, we aim to build the foundations for learning by taking into account the unique nature of every child, recognising that they develop at different rates.
Children are given opportunities to play, explore and enquire through active learning. They learn to socialise with others and to listen and communicate effectively. They experience the importance of sharing songs and stories and how they can learn to read, developing their knowledge of sounds and words around them. Children will play with numbers and solve problems, learn to write and explore creative ideas. The world around them will be an exciting place to explore as they make their learning journey through their Reception year.
They are supported throughout the year to make positive relationships enabling them to become confident, independent learners and ready for a smooth transition into Year 1.
