Our Autumn Memories

Autumn Celebrations - A Term Full of Colour and Joy!

What an amazing time we've had in Reception learning about some wonderful autumn celebrations, including Harvest, Bonfire Night and Diwali!

We loved exploring pumpkins, cutting them open and using our senses to describe what we could see, feel and smell. We also donated food items for our Harvest collection and visited our school field to pick radishes and spinach for our chefs to add to our delicious salad bar menu!

We explored patterns and colours by making our own creative paper sparklers. We also talked about the importance of staying safe around bonfires, fireworks and sparklers.

We really enjoyed learning about Diwali, the Festival of Lights, and discovering the colour, joy and traditions associated with this special celebration. In Music, we learnt a dance representing the five days of Diwali, and we loved welcoming parent visitors into school to share a special assembly with us.

What a wonderful term full of kindness, care, love, colour and joy!

Our Reception Journey Begins!

We are incredibly proud of how brilliantly our Reception children have settled into school life. They have embraced new routines with confidence, developed positive relationships with both their peers and adults, and shown great enthusiasm for learning.

The children have loved exploring all areas of our provision, whether building, climbing, drawing, creating, investigating or discovering the exciting opportunities within our new outdoor space! It has been wonderful to see their curiosity, imagination and independence flourish as they engage in new experiences each day.

As part of our 'What's My Story?' topic, the children have thoroughly enjoyed sharing information about themselves and their families, while also learning about their peers. Friendships are already blossoming, and we are delighted to see such a happy, confident and caring start to their Reception journey.
