Ten, ten, ten, ten……..We love the number 10! Our Maths this week and last has been all about the number 10. We have been finding as many different ways of making the number 10 as we can. We played a game using lollipop sticks where we had to take a bunch of 10 lolly sticks …
We have been busy again this week in Reception. On Monday, in Phonics we revised the sound ‘l’ and worked hard in our Jolly Phonics books. We loved making handprint manes for our lions and carefully designed our own lolly pops. We even made real lime lollies using lolly moulds. We put them into the …
This week our topic is ‘Colours’. We started off the week with some colour mixing. We talked about how we would use our hands to mix two colours together and predicted what would happen (EAD). There were some interesting theories! In outside ChIL we found a pumpkin and some gourds that Mrs Radgman and Mrs …
What a fun week we have had in Reception! On Monday in Literacy, we enjoyed focusing on the phoneme ‘m’. We took time to use our magic water to make the ‘m’ disappear. We enjoyed making medals with collage and drawing our Mums and trying to label them using our phonic knowledge. We are trying …
This week our topic is ‘Shapes’. In our adult-led activity we thought about the properties of different shapes. Mrs Weir drew them on the Smart Board and we counted their sides and corners. We then learnt a song about each shape. Afterwards we went on a shape hunt around the school. We found lots of …

Welcome to another busy week in Reception! On Monday in Literacy, we enjoyed focusing on the sound ‘e’. We discovered how to write ‘e’ correctly. We used scarves to practise our letter formation! We painted beautiful watercolours of Elmer the elephant, found lots of ‘e’ letters and put them in egg boxes and tried …
We continued our ‘All About Me’ topic work today by trying to draw ourselves. Before we began we read the story ‘The Paper Dolls’ By Julia Donaldson, (Literacy). In the story the little girl drew a row of paper dolls, each one with different features. We looked at our faces in mirrors and talked about …
On Wednesday, 19th September, Form III went on a trip to, ‘Celtic Harmony’, near Hertford. The girls were transported back to, ‘The Stone Age’, where they were able to take part in a number of activities. The girls became: hunters, gatherers, traders and den builders. Luckily the prehistoric animals were kept away! There was also …
Bonjour tout le monde! We have made puppets in French and have been helping our puppets to talk to each other. Mme Knight has been most impressed with how confident our puppets are at talking in front of the class. In both Maths and English we are working very hard to ensure that we form …
