Welcome to Netherthong Primary School Reception Blog.
What a fantastic start your child has had with us this week.
P.E will be Monday and Friday. Please can your child come in P.E Kit on these days, they will not need a change of clothes. They will be inside for P.E but will be going outside for playtimes.
We are so proud of the way they have all come into school and settled.
Each week I will write a short blog and post photos of what has been happening in our class during the week.
This week they have been settling into school life and getting to know our routines and the way around.
I have completed the government Reception Baseline Assessment with all the children so we can now start on the fun, progressive and informative curriculum we have developed for your child.
More information for parents about the Reception Baseline Assessment can be found online.
I look forward to getting to know you all personally, so we can work together to best support your child (in my eyes) their most important year of their education.
I will be holding two short workshops in Phonics/reading and in Mathematics in the near future.
Please look out for these dates and times.
It will be straight after school and you child will be looked after for 20 minutes by Mrs Hemingway.
Please attend both sessions so you can learn the best ways to support your child at home.
We are looking forward to working with you and your child this year developing them into confident, happy children with a love of learning.

What a hot week we have had.
Those summer temperatures are here!
This week we have looked at the oceans, rock pool life and safety at the seaside.
The story was the Snail and the Whale.
As you may visit the beach during the holiday we feel its important to understand what danger they maybe around and in the sea. Who you can ask if you are unsure and what the coloured flags man at the beach.
Here are a few of our activities.
Snail and a Whale
Floating and Sinking
Have a good weekend!
