At the end of term, Reception finished their KRP ‘Ready Steady Grow’ with some Super Salads. We chopped, sliced and peeled using our motor skills to create a salad. We had to think about the positioning to create a face. We then tasted our salads and evaluated them. Well done Reception
Reception have had a fabulous morning with our friends at Bede Burn for a physical development focus. Well done superstars
Reception have concluded their salvation unit in RE by focusing on the message of forgiveness in the Easter story. We created forgiving hands with Mrs Chalder and spoke about the importance of saying sorry and forgiving one another.

The caterpillars have arrived in our Reception class today.
Reception enjoyed being outdoors in the sunshine ☀️ They searched under logs, lifting stones and digging in the soil in search of bugs. They eventually found spiders, centipedes, ants and worms
Reception showed off their balance and jumping skills in the outdoors yesterday.
During the warm up session they moved around the garden area, stopping to hold their favourite balance pose. They performed a number of jumps, which included : star jump, tuck jump and pencil jump.
Reception thought about Christian festivals celebrated during Easter. We decorated a cross to make links to signs of spring.
Reception explored artwork by the famous artist.
Reception had the absolute pleasure of travelling to Low Barns Farm, in Hexham, today! What a day we had… There was something very special about this farm – it’s a working farm, so we were very excited to become farmers for the day!
Across the day, in addition to keeping their eyes peeled for all the signs of spring, they stayed busy helping around the farm. Not only did we feed the lambs, we also groomed the horses, fed the guinea fowl & hens, collected eggs & met the farmyard cats!
We had lots of sleepy children (and staff) on our return and it’s no wonder, it’s a very tiring job being a farmer, don’t you know?!
