Reception had a fantastic time at Twycross Zoo this week to begin our new topic 'Our Wonderful World'.  We saw lots of wild animals and our workshop helped us to learn more about the features of some of the zoo animals.

Reception have been busy exploring maps of our local area this week.  We have spotted many features of our local area including train tracks, roads, shops and our school!  We then worked together to make our own huge map.

It is a very exciting time in Reception as we grow our own food.  We have planted and are caring for our own dwarf beans as well as grass and flowers in our garden.  We are learning about how lots of the food we eat comes from plants, tasting a range of different fruits and vegetables.

All children in Reception enjoy Balanceability lessons throughout the year.  These sessions support our listening skills, core strength, balance, spatial awareness and resilience.  We love them!
