Welcome to Oak Class!

Our Reception class are settling in really well and we are very proud of them. We are enjoying getting to know everyone. The children are learning our routines and enjoying trying new activities. 

Our curriculum is formed around:-

SEVEN AREAS OF LEARNING

- Personal, Social and Emotional 

- Communication and Language 

- Physical 

- Literacy

- Mathematics 

- Knowledge and Understanding of the World 

- Creative

We are observing the children and assessing the stage the children have reached in their learning and then setting targets for what they need to learn next. 

Reading 

A love of books and reading is crucial for all children and we are preparing to send home books to read with your child. These books will come home on Mondays and Thursdays beginning Monday 21st September. As the children develop reading skills they will be more able to read the books to you. Our phonics work has begun in school and we begin with the letter sounds. 

            s    a   t   p   i   n

Our topics this term will be 'Nursery Rhymes', 'Weather' and 'Night Time'  

Reminders

• Blue book bags in school every day
• Water bottles named and in school every day (only water please - no squash) 
• Please make sure your child's name is on everything 
• Library books need to be in school on Tuesdays please so they can be changed 
• We are a nut free school

Look out for regular newsletters which your child will start to bring home. They will keep you up to date with what is happening in school and ideas for helping at home. 

Thank you
