Another busy week in Reception. We are showing off our independent writing, maths skills, creativity and simply how amazing we are ❤️⭐️❤️⭐️❤️
Another very busy and amazing week in Reception. We had a visit from Mr O who was showing us some instruments, using rhythm and music. The creativity is fabulous! Amazing team work and lots of imagination. We have been using our maths skills in lots of our planning time and the independent writing has blown us away. The sunny weather is definitely helping as we can be outside working together ❤️⭐️
In LMTW ‘Light up the World’ we have been focusing on different sounds we can hear in our natural environment. The children had to listen to the different sounds then act them out using different body parts for their friends to guess them. The children in turn guessed what each sound was then together made class actions for each sound.
What a busy time we have had in Reception. Some amazing creations, writing and maths using our first, then, now language. Great collaborations, exploring and fun in the sun ❤️
Today 1 Red had their first music lesson with Mr O. It was all about listening and following instructions to play games and copy the rhythm and beat and work as a team. The children were split into 2 teams and had to work extremally hard together by communicating using their bodies and voices to enable them to beat each other and working effectively and quickly. A great time was had by all and we can’t wait for our next session.
Today in our geography lesson, we looked at the 7 continents and the 5 oceans. We learned two songs to help us remember all of the continents and oceans. We then were able to identify where the continents are on the map and as a challenge, we located the oceans. If you ask us, we will be able to sing you our songs!

A fabulous first week back! We have been looking at China in our Learning Means The World theme ‘Come fly with me Asia’. We have been looking at Chinese artefacts, writing our names in Chinese and we even made a Chinese restaurant in our home corner! We also talked about Remembrance Sunday and made poppies, our tree is looking amazing!

Sweet Caroline and the Football Boots is a fun, interactive, music-led performance for all the family with local musicians Ashleigh Lowes and Paige Temperley.
The songs in this performance have been co-created and inspired by girls football teams from across South Tyneside. The story is about the journey of “Sweet” Caroline, a small girl from South Tyneside who is desperate to be a footballer and who teams up with her older neighbour to take on the boys! It is an engaging story of discovering your talent, overcoming stereotypes, finding your team and having confidence in yourself, with a fun, uplifting message for a young audience.
As part of the ticket price, there will be themed food served after the show – and as it is football-themed, there has to be Bovril, sausage rolls and pies!
