Reception Open Day- Thursday 3rd September

23rd August 2020M Hanratty

As we approach the beginning of the academic year, the Foundation Stage Staff recognise that there will be a lot of nervous children (and parents!) who are unsure about returning or starting school.
With this in mind, we would like to offer you the opportunity to book a socially distanced visit to come and look around the Reception classroom and ask staff any final questions you may have. You will enter school through the staff car park and wait in the Foundation Stage garden until a member of staff brings you into the classroom where hand sanitiser will be available.
To ensure that everyone has the chance to access the day safely, time slots will be 10 minutes each. If you are unable to attend the day or have any further queries after your visit, you can contact me at [email protected]

Please click on the link below to book a time slot.
We are very excited to meet you all and start our learning journey together!

🐠 Our Foundation Stage Big Fish🐠

16th July 2020M Hanratty

What an unforgettable year!

Despite the unusual circumstances, we have still managed to cram in many amazing memories and so many giggles. The children have worked extremely hard and coped with lockdown fantastically well.

On behalf of all the EYFS staff, I would just like to say how proud we are of our children. Everyday, they have made us smile and it has been an absolute pleasure to watch them blossom into the amazing little super stars they are today.

Below is a video which shows just how much they have grown!

We’d like to thank you for all of the kind messages we have received and we hope you have a relaxing summer! 🌞

See you in September 🤗
