Welcome to the Reception Class Page.

Dear Parents,

We are beginning to seen the first signs of Spring and the sunshine recently is bringing much needed cheer to our days.

As always, we thank you from the bottom of our hearts for your support with your child’s home learning over the past weeks. As a school we cannot wait to welcome the children back next week.

In Reception, we will continue to use the current format with the daily videos on Tapestry and the work on the class page.  

Please watch out for links to Mrs Bhabra’s and the Hazlemere Church assemblies. Class sharing assemblies this week will have a book focus to tie in with World Book day. Encourage your child to share and talk about a book which they would recommend to the rest of their class.

To help you celebrate World Book Day at home this Thursday 4^th March, please find below a list of ideas and activities which you can choose from and complete alongside other set home learning. We hope you have fun and we look forward to you sharing photos of your day by uploading them to dbprimary.

Please establish a routine for home learning as suggested below:

Wishing you a happy and rewarding week.

Kind regards,

Hazlemere Staff

There are 4 key principles that underpin our practice in the Early Years at Hazlemere C of E.

A Unique Child   We recognise that all children are different. We identify and celebrate their strengths and support their areas for development.

Positive Relationships   Our pupils interact well with each other and with the adults in the school. We encourage parents to be involved with their child's education.

Enabling Environments   Our indoor and outdoor areas encourage exploration, investigation and independent learning. Our displays and resources are well maintained and reflect current learning.

Learning and Development   Pupils achieve well and make good progress from their starting points. Learning is playful, practical and purposeful and builds upon prior attainment. Our children enjoy coming to school.
