This week is Anti-bullying Week, for worship reception discussed what bullying is and what we would do to stop or help someone. Well done reception, super ideas! 

Reception used their creative skills to produce  a paper plate puppet.  We started by folding the plate in half to create a mouth. As we decorated the plate, we thought about a name and how our puppet would speak.

Reception had a wonderful morning in Forest School, this morning! Our companion topic this half term is Puppets & Pop-Ups, we began to look at traditional tales that have been turned into Puppet Shows! Following this, we thought about the key props/puppets and pop ups needed to show the main events in a traditional tale!

Our focus today was around Goldilocks & the Three Bears as a traditional tale. We used a HUGE amount of skills, covering lots of learning, as we created campfire porridge for the bears and Goldilocks! ✨

Yesterday afternoon, reception began their learning on Marvellous Machines by creating digital art on the iPads, we have made links to Bonfire Night and created in the style of the artist Jackson Pollock. Super job reception

Today Reception enjoyed juice and treats, as we shared our learning.  We looked at photographs of  the  activities that we had  engaged in through out the topic ‘Build it up”, Then discussed our  favourite activity!

Today reception have celebrated the festival of Diwali  we’ve had lots of activities within our provision to access during our independent learning. Diwali was also set for our talk homework last week so it was amazing to see so many fantastic videos and photos linked to Diwali which we have shared this afternoon. It was super helpful and supported our learning brilliantly! Well done reception 

Reception really enjoyed their first trip to Jarrow Library!  We walked there and then met the lovely Catherine, who shared some stories with us.  Following this, we picked books of our own and brought them back to school!

Reception LOVED getting stuck into helping #saveourchurch by carrying out a leaflet drop, this week! We were blown away by so many gorgeous members of our local community who gave us words of encouragement and support!

What a fantastic day reception have had focused on making journeys! Well done superstars you’ve been amazing
