Reception Learning Resources

RECEPTION

Over the first period of lockdown, our Reception teachers introduced an interactive timetable for the Reception parents to follow at home, with pre-recorded lessons, activities and stories that the parents could dip into with the children, at a time that was convenient for them.  One real-time Zoom class story session a day was augmented by 1:1 reading twice a week that gave the pupil and their teacher an opportune time to connect on an individual level.  Many of these pre-recorded lessons are featured below and we hope that you and your children enjoy the lessons, activities and stories provided.

In the third period of lockdown, the majority of our lessons were delivered live by their teachers. New resources have been uploaded below.
