Mrs Thomson Mrs Howland
Reception Teacher Classroom Assistant


A warm welcome to the Reception home page from Mrs. Thomson and Mrs. Howland. We are looking forward to an exciting Summer Term in Reception.
It is always a busy term with so much going on. We will be thinking about space, the moon and stars and investigating 2d and 3d shapes. We will then be learning all about minibeasts and hatching our own butterflies from eggs.
The children enjoy lovely, close friendships with their buddies in Year Six time so this year we will be going on a trip together to Chester Zoo. This will be on Thursday 10th June, details to follow after half term.
