Reception 2020 - 2021

Welcome to Reception!

The Early Years Foundation Stage sets standards for the learning, development and care of children from birth to 5 years old.

The EYFS framework support an integrated approach to early learning and care. It gives all professionals a set of common principles and commitments to deliver quality early education and childcare experiences to all children.

Please take a look at what we have been doing! 

At St. Mary's, we follow Read, Write Inc. as our phonics programme in teaching children to read. The video below shows the sounds and how we say them.

COVID 19

As of 4th January, our school is closed to all apart from key worker and vulnerable children. a letter from Mr McCann is on the website for you. We will be sending out further information later in the week concerning next week's learning. Your child's class teacher will upload work for them to complete via Seesaw. The daily work will consist of:

- Maths

- English / Literacy

- Phonics

- Topic work

- R.E. / PSE

This work will follow the curriculum that would be followed in class to ensure that your child is not missing any of their learning.  A workbook was sent home with your child before October half term. Work can be completed in this, photographed and uploaded to Seesaw for feedback. The book does not need to be returned to school. A parents guide to Seesaw can be found below
