Our new Reception starters have enjoyed an AMAZING first week in school!

They have loved exploring their indoor and outdoor provision, meeting their Year 6 buddies and having lunch with them, dressing up, listening to stories, practicing their teeth brushing after dinnertime and they also had their first PE lesson in the hall, where they took part in a cricket skills session!

Wow - they have been busy!

Today, they have been learning about settlements and locating capital cities in Geography.
