Reception

In Reception, we cultivate a love of learning for life. Our curriculum is planned to provide balanced and relevant experiences for each individual child. We are passionate about outdoor learning and problem solving. It is important that our children feel safe to be risk takers as they approach their learning during the day.

Our teachers encourage us to challenge ourselves once we have built confidence in newly taught skills. We are then encouraged to use these skills in our free play to extend and consolidate our learning.

Each week we have new 'Rainbow Challenges,' with activities we need to complete independently. They support our physical development, phonics, writing and mathematical development. Our progress and work is recorded in a number of ways such as in our writing books, ‘Our Learning Journey’ scrap book and ‘Seesaw’.

Early Years is extremely busy and fantastic fun. Keep up to date with us by following our blog.

The Reception team is

  • R Hepworth – Mrs Wise, Mrs Summers and Miss Love
  • R Van Gogh – Miss Valentine and Mrs Quinn
  • R Kandinsky – Mrs Coleman, Mrs Spina and Mrs Dempsey

We are lucky to be supported by our HLTA, Miss Gill.

Our P.E day is Friday morning. May we remind you to ensure that all your child’s kit is clearly labelled.

Please make sure that you bring your library book to school each Friday to be changed.

Group A's First Week at Bridgewater Primary

We would like to say a big warm welcome to our wonderful 'Group A' Reception Class children and families who started their learning journey at Bridgewater last week. We have been so proud of how well the children have settled into their new routines as they have begun to explore the continuous provision areas and make new friends.

The children had a busy, fun filled week building castles and pirate ships, climbing, drawing and painting, sharing stories, riding the bikes and playing ball games. Some children even discovered runner beans to collect from our bean pods in the garden and made bean soup in the mud kitchen. The children started their phonic sessions learning their first few letter sounds m, a ,t , i, s and learnt to build and read their very first words. To end the week we had an enjoyable trip to the school library where the children chose their first library books to take home to share with our families.

We look forward to welcoming the children back into school after the weekend.
