Reception Topic Webs

Find our topic webs here.

Our topic webs will give you an idea of some of the experiences that your children will have throughout their time in Reception.

As many opportunities are child led, the topics we explore are chosen by the children and our curriculum is weaved through, focusing on what the children are interested in.

Notice Board

Please ensure your child brings the following to school every day...

Labelled water bottle containing water. 

Their book bag containing their planner, reading book and sharing book.

Your child may also want to bring in their own snack each day. Please ensure that this is a healthy snack such as fruit or a cereal bar.

Our PE day is a Thursday. Children must come into school in their kit with suitable footwear. Please ensure your child has jogging bottoms for colder days, as we spend a lot of our time outdoors.
