Reception New Year Newsletter
Our New Topic: Adventures
Our topic for this half term will be
Adventures. There will be lots of adventure
themed play in the classroom and our key
books will be: We’re Going on a Bear
Hunt, The Gruffalo and Handa’s Surprise.
Dear Parents and Carers,
We hope that you have enjoyed the winter break, we are pleased to welcome you
back for the first half term of the new year. There are lots of exciting things to share
about the next six weeks in school…
Reception Shopping Trip
As part of our work about Handa’s
Surprise, we will be going to the
supermarket to buy ingredients to make a
fruit salad in class. We will be talking
about the tastes and
textures of the fruit and
where the different fruits
come from.
Home Learning Stars
We would love to hear about what
the children have been doing at
home. Please feel free to take a
home learning star template from the
cloakroom or the classroom and tell
us about the activities you have been
enjoying. If you’re not sure what to
write just ask one of the Reception
team and they’ll be happy to help.
Homework
Thank you for all the hard
work that has gone into
supporting children with
their Learning Logs at
home. This is an important part in sup-
porting children in consolidating the skills
taught at school. We ask that Learning
Log challenges are completed every
week and they will be collected on a
Monday morning. Please be as creative
as you like with the homework—we look
forward to seeing all the wonderful
pieces that the children produce and
will share some examples in our celebra-
tion assembly.
Parent Activity Morning
We will be inviting parents and carers
into school on Tuesday 6th February for
a Chinese New Year activity morning.
More details will follow closer to the
time and we look
forward to seeing
If you have any questions at all, please don’t hesitate to ask.
Best wishes,
The Reception Team
