RECEPTION

Miss R Innes and Mrs. S Brogden

Welcome to the wonderful world of Reception!

Our teachers are Miss Innes and Mrs. Brogden and our Teaching Assistant is Miss Tingle.

 

We aim to inspire, in every child, a love of learning and enable them to achieve their goals, aspirations, and dreams, by encouraging independence, confidence, and creativity.

 

We believe that young children learn and develop best in enabling environments, in which their experiences respond to their individual needs, both in the classroom environment and in the great outdoors.

 

We hope you enjoy looking around our class blog, which is a window into our world and the wonderful things we get up to, please feel free to add any photos or comments you have too!
