Your class teacher is Miss Lane.

Our class TA - to be confirmed in September.

We have PE on --- to be confirmed in September.

The children should wear their PE kit to school on PE days.

I am so excited to welcome you and your child to Daisy Class, a warm, nurturing space where the adventure of school begins!

This year will be filled with fun, laughter, and learning as your child settles into the rhythm of school life.  As the children become more familiar with their new environment, they will begin to learn and develop the important routines of school, helping them to grow in confidence and independence.

Together, we'll explore the Reception environment, spark curiosity through play, and build the foundations for a lifelong love of learning.

Making friends and forming positive relationships is at the heart of everything we do, and we can't wait to watch your child grow in confidence as they discover, create, and connect.  

As part of their learning, the children will begin to take part in small group work throughout the week. These carefully planned activities provide opportunities to develop key skills in communication, early literacy, mathematics, and personal development. Working in small groups allows children to build confidence, learn alongside their peers, and receive support and encouragement as they explore new concepts and challenges.  

One of our first learning journeys will be through the book The Colour Monster, which helps children understand and talk about their feelings. We'll be using the story and its colourful monsters to explore emotions in a fun and meaningful way, linking them to our Zones of Regulation to support emotional awareness and self-regulation. Through creative activities, discussions, and play, your child will begin to recognise and express their feelings in a safe and supportive environment.

Don't forget to check Tapestry regularly for updates, information, and snapshots of what your child has been up to in class. You can also contribute by adding your own pictures, videos, and captions of your child's adventures and achievements at home. It's a lovely way to celebrate their progress and stay connected with their learning journey.

We are looking forward to a fantastic year together and can't wait to see all the wonderful things your child will achieve in Daisy Class!

Please ensure your child has all their uniform, coats, P.E. kit and bags labelled clearly.  Thank you. 

School lunch 

All children in Year 0 are entitled to a free school meal and it is a good social and learning experience for the children, as well as saving you making a packed lunch every day!

The menu is designed and cooked from fresh by our experienced catering staff every day. The menu runs on a 4 week timetable and can be found here.

The Early Years staff have lunch with the children to encourage tasting and eating a variety of foods and good table manners.

Please come and ask any member of the Early Years staff anything you are unsure of. Every morning there is a member of staff at the gate that you can speak to. If it is something more detailed you can make an appointment to see the teacher after school.
