I just wanted to say a HUGE thank you to you as parents - your kind words, cards and gifts had me blubbering for most of the morning yesterday. It has been an amazing year and now it is time to relax and enjoy the summer (if it ever arrives).
Thank you for supporting me throughout the past year and please feel free to continue to give me a shout or an e-mail in the future - if I can help I will!

An eventful year!!
Just a quick one to say how much we have enjoyed this year. The children have made amazing progress and this could not have happened without your fantastic support.
It has been a busy year and over the last couple of weeks. We have been recapping all the fantastic things that we have done. They have written about all their reception memories, prominent ones being the trip to Bridlington, the Christmas play, walks around Methley and to the church, space week, people who help us and many more.
Just to let you know that we are all disappointed that Sports Day did not occur this term but they enjoyed practising all the events! I think we will be more than ready for next year!
Again, mant thanks for an absolutely superb year. Enjoy your holidays and we look forward to seeing you next year.

Our Final Week
I hope that you are all prepared or tears at the end of the week - I mean from me not the children! I have thoroughly enjoyed my first year in Reception which has been made even better by your amazing children. Paris Class have spend the last week reminiscing by looking through all of the photos I have taken during the year and talking about everything we can remember. We have used this for our final Big Write of the year and each and every one of your children has blown me away with their progress!
Anyway I wasn't here to tell you about that. Just a few quick reminders:
Monday is French Day - please dress in red, white and blue and bring along some food if you would like to contribute!
Wednesday is Kebab day where we will be making our "healthy veggie kebabs" in DT and having a taste to see if we did a good job!
Thursday is hopefully sports morning - we'll probably need a little exercise after all of that eating!
Friday is games day - please allow your children to bring in "sharing toys and games" not electronic games or anything with a million bits that could get lost (or eaten!)
I hope that I will get to speak to you all this week but if not - A GREAT BIG THANK YOU FOR READING THIS and a heartfelt congratulations for your fab children! I look forward to seeing them progress further in Year 1 and they have promised to still talk to / hug me when they see me!

The last two weeks!
How quickly has this year gone!?! I can't believe that I'm winding up the year with my final assessments and chats with you all and preparing your children for their new adventures in year one!
This week we will be having sports morning on Tuesday so please come along and support your children. We think it will be from 9.15 ish until about 11.30 ish at the latest. On Thursday your children will spend most of the day with their new teacher - which is always a little sad for us that get left behind and they are usually a little apprehensive. You will be notified beforehand which teacher your child will get but please ask if you have any questions or concerns.
This week's literacy will be entitled "My Memories of Reception" where we will be looking at photographs from throughout the year and writing about what we have enjoyed. In numeracy we will be assessing their addition and subtraction abilities to inform their next teacher of their next steps in learning.
Next week your children will be having a french day on Monday which involves a lovely sounding lunch. If your child has a packed lunch but they would like to join in please complete the form sent home. I will be joining the children for "un peu du poulet".

Summer Fair
Just a quick reminder that Friday after school is our Summer Fair so please come along and support the school and help raise some funds.
There will be refreshments and stalls including face painting, tombola and of course a bouncy castle!
I look forward to seeing you there!

Wow - what did I learn!?!
Well as I have already told you, this week is Space Week and today we went in an inflatable dome (or a bubble as it has just been described to me by one of my girls) to look at stars!
We were shown how to recognise different star constellations like Orion, the Great Bear and Pegasus along with a story. We were also told about Beetlejuice a star that is dying in the sky and therefore burns red.
They say that every day is a school day - and they are right because I've learnt a lot today!
