The Little Gardener

This week it was RH's turn to visit the school library and share a story with our fantastic librarian Ms Storms.

The children heard the story of 'The Little Gardener' by Emily Hughes. This book tells the tale of a little gardener who loved his garden more than anything, but struggled to look after it despite working very, very hard. That is, until Someone finds the garden and decides to help!



If you would like to find out more about this story then Ms Storms can be found in our school library after school on a Tuesday.

Please come along and make use of this great resource!

First time for everything...

The children have been at school for three weeks now and have been busy filling their days with lots of 'firsts'. There have been first days, first lunchtimes, first PE lessons and for some children, first time meeting their new teachers and friends!









 
 
This week has also seen the children spending their first full week at school and despite the long days, the children have coped fantastically with all of the new experiences that each day brings and settled beautifully into the daily routine of life in Reception.

The first year of school is an exciting time for the children and we will keep you updated with news and photos as we continue to 'play, grow and learn together'.
