Children in Reception had a visit today from the local police and were lucky enough to have a look in the police vehicle too!

Base 8 have been celebrating their success this week!

At the start of term, they each set a goal of something that they wanted to get better at.

Amongst the goals were to get better at writing, football, reading, singing, designing and drawing.

We are proud to say they have all achieved the goal they set and their success is very well deserved!

Well done Base 8! 

Last week the Reception children walked into Newport and visited the town library. Here are a few photographs of the children enjoying discovering new books.

Reception children have been learning about people who help us.

This includes people who help out around the school , including cleaners, lunchtime staff , kitchen staff , wraparound care staff and office staff.

See if your children know their names!

Reception have been listening to the story of Burglar Bill by Janet and Allan Ahlberg. They have been acting out the story, making police cars and police radios and doing lots of dressing up!

Today we are looking at the traditions of Chinese New Year.

Mrs Branch has delivered a whole school assembly this morning.

The infants are now taking part in various activities around the theme including making fortune cookies and stir fry!

This week children in Reception have been learning to remember all the ways to make 5, for example 3 + 2.

First we used blocks to build different shapes for each number to 5 and then we took prints of all the number 5s. We talked about which smaller numbers we could see within our 5 patterns.

They ate them all up!

THE END!

Run, run as fast as you can;

You can’t catch me, I’m the Gingerbread Man!
