🎉 Reception has been on the move this afternoon! 🎉

Our budding athletes took part in their first PE lesson at Blacko, balancing beanbags, bear crawling across the classroom and striking impressive skydiving poses. What fantastic effort from everyone!

The fun continued in Music with Mrs Wilkinson, where the children listened to pop songs and shared how the music made them feel. There were lots of smiles and excitement all around! 🎶✨

Well done, Class 1. We are so proud of our energetic and enthusiastic super movers! 🌟🌈

🌟 Another lovely day in Reception! 🌟

Today, the children had lots of fun exploring our classroom and outdoor area, making a splash at the water tray, getting creative in the mud kitchen, and building impressive towers with the blocks! 💦🏰

We also enjoyed sharing our summer scrapbooks. The children were so excited to tell their friends about their families and summer adventures, and we loved learning all about their special memories. ❤️☀️

Here's to an amazing year of learning, laughter, and new discoveries! 🌈⭐
