Penberth

Welcome to Penberth.
 
We are a mixed Reception and Year 1 class.
We are taught by Mrs Cross on Mondays and Tuesdays and Mrs Kwiatkowska on Wednesdays, Thursdays and Fridays. We are also very lucky to have Mrs Tesdale working in our class.
 
 
 
 
 
Our Autumn topic is Traditional Tales.
 
This term we are working on establishing our routines and getting used to being in school and becoming independent learners.
  

Over the Autumn term we will be embarking on an exciting adventure into the enchanting world of traditional tales. We will be exploring beloved classics such as The Three Little Pigs, Little Red Riding Hood and Jack and the Beanstalk.

Through these traditional tales we aim to enhance language skills, ignite imagination and foster a love for storytelling.

As they engage with these timeless stories, we will look to cover this theme across the rest of the curriculum.

 

 

Weekly information:

PE will be every Tuesday - please wear the correct PE kit to school.

Penberth will have Forest School on Wednesday mornings, please ensure your child is suitably dressed ( if you need any help with the kit, please contact Mrs Cross or Mrs K).

Swimming will be every Thursday morning.

Children will be provided with fruit and milk at snack time every morning.

Welcome To Our School
 
 
We are looking forward to getting to know your Reception children and helping them settle into full-time education. We deliver a curriculum that is immersed in play-based pedagogy with lots of hands-on activities. 
Our class starts school at 8.45- please drop your child off by the side gate where a member of staff will greet them. We realise that it might be hard for our youngest children to leave you so will do our best to assist in an appropriate manner to make this transition as easy as we can. 
End of the day collection is at the same side gate and we ask that you arrive promptly at 3.10.
 
Please remember to use
Teach Your Monster to Read games
to reinforce learning of phonics.
 
 
 Alongside our topic we will be learning new sounds most days, each child will have their own wallet of sound cards.  Please make sure these are brought into school each day in the children's book bags.
Reading books will be changed on Mondays for the week. Please could you sign and comment whenever you listen to you child read at home. Thank you
