Welcome to Reception
Dear parents,
This week children have been exploring their 5 senses through different activities.
During R.E, we introduced ‘Buddhism’, and their traditions while also talking about the similarities with Christianity.
Children enjoyed the song ‘Pantosaurus Dinosaur’ and we talked about how important it is to keep our private parts to our self and where to seek help if needed. Here is the song The Pantosaurus Song! | #TalkPANTS | NSPCC – YouTube.
Enjoy your half term and thank you for your continued support,
Early Years Team.

We would like to thank all the parents who offered to come and share their professions with the children.
Children have been learning about ‘People Who Help Us’, and why everybody is important for our community.
During R.E, we introduced ‘The Three Hierarchs’, and how important they are for the Orthodox Religion.
Children have been practising adding ‘1 more’ to different numbers, and discussing what happens to the Numicon shapes when we add the Numicon shapes number 1.
Have a great weekend. See you on Monday.

Dear parents,
This week we have been making lists of what do you need in order to prepare a birthday party, based on our book ‘Kipper’s Birthday’.
In Maths, we have been working on our counting in combination with finding the corresponding Numicon shape. We are going to be sending the worksheet with the numbers and the rhymes home; this is for you to keep at home to practice with your little ones.
Children have been exploring different types of foods that they can eat and how each one helps in providing their bodies with vitamins and nutrients. We introduce the idea of 5 fruits and vegetables per day.

Welcome back to everyone. We hope you had a great Christmas holidays.
This week, we have been talking about Christmas and how we spent our holidays.
We celebrated Epiphany, children have learnt about Saint Basil the Great and made a Vasilopita, which is a New Year’s Day bread, cake or pie in Greece. The cake contains a hidden coin or trinket which gives good luck to the receiver. So careful when your children eat the cake at home!!
Have a great weekend,
Miss Panayiotou, Miss McGrath, Miss Brown & Miss Mozo.
