Autumn 1 2024
Our topic work this half term is called 'Home & Away'; see curriculum guide below.
The first 'mini-topic' which will run for the first 2 weeks is called 'Me, you, us' as we will be getting to know each other, talking about ourselves, our feelings and our families; finding out about new friends, sharing & taking turns and learning about the classroom, playground and routines.
The Reception Baseline Assessment is a literacy and numeracy activity that will be completed one to one over the first few weeks. If you would like more information about this, please see the 'Welcome to Class 1' page.
PE Kit and Spare Clothes
It is a good idea for the children to keep a spare set of clothes, as well as their PE kit, in school. This bag stays on their peg and only comes home at half term so that PE kits can be washed, and to check that trainers still fit!
Spare clothes are useful for various reasons; a child may have a 'little accident' or they may fall over on a rainy day and get wet and muddy. They may get muddy during a forest school session or they may become poorly and be sick!
These clothes do not have to be school uniform, just something comfy and practical, such as leggings and a long-sleeved T-shirt, pants and socks.
If all items of clothing, as well as the PE bag could be named please!
