As things currently stand we are expecting to go ahead with the proposed staggered entry for reception children (please see below). Class teachers have been busy getting the classrooms ready this week and are excited to welcome the children from Wednesday 9th September.
If you are joining Reception or Nursery in September follow this link to hear a story from your new class teacher.
Come and see what fun learning we have planned for this week!
Watch the video to discover today’s new sound “p-p-p.” Can you spot the p-p-pirate? See if you can write the letter with the rhyme “down the pirate’s plait and around his face.” https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uYAxX2WO9jk
During busy times, it is important to take a moment to be calm. Here is a simple breathing activity for children and parents to do at home. All you need is your favourite soft toy!
Belly Buddies
Find a space with limited noise or distractions, such as your child’s bedroom. Lie down on a soft surface with your legs and arms spread wide and your palms facing down. Take your favourite soft toy and place it on top of your belly button. As you take a deep breath in, count “1, 2, 3” and watch as your toy rises up with your belly. Repeat as you breathe out, counting “1, 2, 3” and watch as your toy sinks down. Repeat 5 times or more. You may wish to add relaxing music.
