Reception
Our reception classes are Apple, Cherry and Mulberry class. They are based in our wonderfully resourced open plan learning environment known as The Orchard on the lower site.
Age Related Expectations for your child's year group can be found attached below (Reception - Early Learning Goals (ELGs)). Parents/Carers will find these particularly useful, and we highly recommend everyone takes a look at these important documents to aid your child's learning.
Attached below you will also find up-to-date Homework Grids and the term's Topic Map.
The Early Year Foundation Stage (EYFS) Framework is followed in Reception. Below you can find a PowerPoint presentation with further information for parents and carers.
