Welcome to Reception!

Mrs Savage and Mrs Brotherton

On Monday we have ballet and on Wednesday we have music.

Reading books will be changed on Thursdays and Friday. Please remember to sign the planner.

Below is a helpful reminder of how to pronounce each sound along with a link to the tricky words we are learning.

A newsletter will be sent out each Friday to let you know what the children will be learning about in class. Please also check the newsletter for the sounds of the week.
