St James CofE Primary School
Reception
Welcome to our Reception class. Reception is the start of a child’s school journey. It is where the foundations for future learning are laid. We aim to spark curiosity and expand the imagination so the possibilities of learning are endless. Through play, children begin to explore the world around them, make connections and forge significant relationships. Every child deserves the best start in life and by creating a nurturing, positive and enriching environment, we provide the opportunity for each child to reach their full potential and become lifelong learners.

Autumn 2
Reception had a fantastic half term, and one of the highlights for me was witnessing their performance at the Singing Assembly. Every child truly gave their best, and the entire performance was a joy to behold.
I also had the opportunity to engage in Christmas crafts with the children, and their enthusiasm and creativity were remarkable. They have been diligently working on their phonics, math, and handwriting, all while learning about the importance of being kind friends and supporting one another. I look forward to discussing these values with the children, ensuring we have a joyful half term filled with meaningful learning and a commitment to treating each other with kindness and respect.
Autumn 1
What a fantastic first term it has been in Reception Class at St. James Primary School! The children have settled in wonderfully, embracing daily routines, building friendships, and connecting with staff. They have jumped into phonics, handwriting, and maths with great enthusiasm and shown amazing creativity in music and art activities.
For Black History Month, we took an exciting journey to Ghana, learning all about the country and creating our own storybook version of Anansi and the Pot of Wisdom. It has been a joy to watch them explore, learn, and try new things with such excitement and confidence. We are incredibly proud of each child’s growth and cannot wait to see what they achieve next!
