Reception

Welcome to Reception! The Reception teacher is Mrs Gooch. Mrs Warner is the teaching assistant and the children are also supported by Miss Salter (apprentice) and Mr Pellow (apprentice). 

Term 1 2023-24

The Reception children are settling into school very well, getting to know the adults in class and each other, exploring the classroom, outdoor area and finding their way around school. It is lovely to meet them properly! Over the first few weeks in Reception we will be playing together and teaching the routines and expectations of school, especially looking after the resources in the Reception class. There is more information in the ‘curriculum map’ about our adult-led learning this term. 

In Term 1 our theme is ‘Teddy Bear, Teddy Bear’. We will be exploring stories and books about teddies and bears and we will finish the term with our own ‘Teddy Bear’s Picnic’. 

In Term 1 our RE topic is ‘Special People’. As part of this, the children are thinking about  the special people in their lives.  

More information about the adult-led learning in Reception this term can be found in our ‘curriculum map’ for the term. https://huttonceprimaryschool.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/09/curric-map-T1-2023-24.pdf
