Reception
Newsletter-December 2016
Our Reception children
have come to the end of their first term and haven`t they done well. We are so
proud of them all. During our assessments we were pleased that most children
now recognise a good percentage of their sounds, many can blend sounds to make
words and some have learnt to read a bank of key vocabulary. Lots of the
children are really keen to write and it is lovely to hear the children
counting with confidence. So we are not surprised that they are feeling tired.
So with only three
days until the Christmas holidays we would just like to remind you of the end
of term arrangements.
On Monday we have our
Christmas stay and play craft day. There will be a range of activities set out
in the KS1 hall. There will be two sessions running one between 9.30 and 11.00 and one
between 1.15 and 2.30. Come along whenever you can and enjoy making some
decorations, decorating biscuits and having fun with your child.
On Tuesday we have a
very magical party day . Please send some shareable food in as soon as possible such as cakes, crisps
or biscuits. Children should wear school uniform as usual.
On Wednesday we will
have a fun last day with music and
Christmas festivities.
School finishes at the normal time of 3.00.School is then closed for the Christmas holidays and reopens on January 3rd at 8.30am.
As the week is so hectic we will change the children`s books for them but not actually hear each child read.
We would like to
finish by thanking you for your support and wishing you a very Merry
Christmas and a happy 2017.
Kind Regards
The Reception Team
