Reception Class – Autumn Term Learning
This half term, our Reception learners have enjoyed exploring the topic “This is Me.” They began by creating self-portraits and sharing stories about their summer adventures, helping them settle into their new learning environment. The children explored emotions and feelings, drew pictures of their families, and investigated their homes by counting windows and doors. Using construction blocks, they designed and built their own houses and shared special family traditions. As part of our cultural learning, we celebrated the Festival of Lights (Diwali), discovering how it is observed around the world. The children created clay diya lamps and expressed their creativity through colourful rangoli patterns.

Looking ahead, our next topic will be “Right or Wrong, Let’s Get Along.” We will explore traditional tales such as Little Red Riding Hood and Goldilocks and the Three Bears, and then move on to the excitement of Christmas celebrations and concert practice. It promises to be another term full of learning and joy!
