Reception 2024 - 2025

Welcome to Reception class! 

Ms Mathieson and Mrs Cartwright welcome to to Reception class. Ms Mathieson works Mon-Thurs and Mrs Cartwright is in class on a Friday. 

We are joined by our valuable TAs - Mrs Meyrick and Mrs Rowe. 

Here you will find infomation about our current topics, activities that we have taken part in, and upcoming events.

In Reception class, your child will learn through the Curriculum for Wales. The six areas of learning are:

• Language, Literacy and Communication
• Mathematics and Numeracy
• Health and Well-being
• Expressive Arts
• Humanities
• Science and Technology

The children develop these areas of learning through directed activities in class, as well as completing more independent activities in our provision areas, both indoors and outdoors. In line with the ethos and pedagogy of the new curriculum, the children are taking more responsibility for their own learning through sharing their ideas and contributing to the planning of activities.

The page is updated with newsletters to keep you informed! We hope you enjoy reading them and learning about the children's experiences. 

We also use an online platform called Seesaw, through which we share photographs of activities the children have taken part in each day. We correspond regularly with parents using the messaging facility. 

Thank you for visiting! 

We look forward to the journey through Reception with you and your child!
