Miss Sandhar and Mrs Catto are our Reception Leads.
We offer a warm welcome to our children and parents from our dedicated team who work in the Early Years Foundation Stage at Briar Hill Infant School.
In our stimulating and creative setting we ensure we harness a real passion for learning through our considered and well-planned curriculum. We explicitly teach phonics, early reading, writng and maths to give children an excellent foundational knowledge. We ignite the children’s imagination and curiosity through exciting learning themes and texts that develop the children’s confidence and independence. The children learn well and actively. explore, construct, collaborate and experiment.
We encourage parental involvement, offering workshops and information sessions, parent/carer voice in the children's learning journals. Curriculum linked and open ended home learning is shared each week to encourage a conversation and have fun with your child, with them being the expert and 'teaching' you all about their clever learning in school. We appreciate yor support at home to complete this weekly and read daily where possible but at least three times a week with your child and record this is their reading diary.
Our aim is for every child to be excited to come into school, to be motivated and engage, to always do their best, be resilient and have a go, to make excellent progress and develop that important life-long love of learning.
