Welcome to the Reception Class Page

20.03.20 – We have updated the Reception class webpage to include a number of home learning resources and web links to support your child’s learning during the school closure. Below is a break down of the key topics and skills that we had planned to cover during the Summer Term in Reception.

*Parents – we would love to see what the children are learning about at home and we welcome you to add any photographs/videos of what your child has been doing onto their tapestry profile.*

We have generated an online resource bank which you can use at home during the school closure and will continue to add more over the coming weeks – https://romileyprimary.com/our-classes/home-learning/
