Over the last couple of weeks, the children have been fully immersed in exploring and learning all about Autumn! They excitedly brought in their autumn discovery bags filled with colourful leaves, conkers, and other seasonal treasures to share with their friends. Together, they created beautiful autumn colour wheels, noticing the rich reds, oranges, yellows, and browns that represent this special time of year. The children also enjoyed reading the story Pumpkin Soup, which inspired lots of imaginative play in the mud kitchen. They set up their very own “Pumpkin Café,” making pretend pumpkin spice lattes, exploring real pumpkins, and even creating their own versions of pumpkin soup. It has been a wonderful week of sensory exploration, creativity, and storytelling as we celebrate the magic of autumn. Take a look at our photos below:-

The children in Reception have had lots of fun over the last few weeks settling in to school. They have learned some of the routines of school, started to make new friends and explored our provision through play. We have shared lots of familiar stories which the children are retelling both indoors and outdoors. Do you have a child starting Reception Class? If so, your child will be participating in the reception baseline assessment (RBA) within the first 6 weeks of starting reception. The purpose of the assessment is to provide the starting point for a new measure that will help parents understand how well schools support their pupils to progress between reception and year 6. What is the Reception Baseline Assessment? The RBA is a short, interactive and practical assessment of your child’s early literacy, communication, language and mathematics skills when they begin school, using materials that most children of your child’s age will be familiar with. They are completed with a familiar member of staff within the setting. It became statutory for all schools from September 2021. For more information, please refer to the guide below. |
