Monday 1st June

Morning everyone! I hope you had an enjoyable half term and have been getting out in the sunshine and enjoying this fabulous weather! What did you do over the half term? I feel like I have been on holiday - I have been lucky enough to get out in my garden and sit and read a book in the sunshine. 

This morning I spoke to Miss Barker and she told me all about Evil Pea in her house! I cannot believe it! Read the Supertato story with your family today - I hope you enjoy Week 8 of the learning pack and thank you for sending all your letters to your friends I can tell you have been trying really hard at your writing! You are all my super stars!

Benny and Miss Palmer's weekend! 7.4.20

Hi everyone from Benny and Miss Palmer, what a lovely weekend we have had sunbathing on the balcony! 

Benny used suncream and spent some time reading his favourite book - have a look at the photo to see what book it is! We have done so much exercising this weekend, we walked for 10 miles on Saturday admiring everyones lovely houses. We also shared some ice cream as our treat - but not before we ate all of our dinner! 

We searched the supermarkets high and low for flour to make our cake and Miss Palmer's dad finally found some - so we will be making a cake as well at some point this week but for now we are staying home on the balcony enjoying the sunshine! What have you been doing? Don't forget to send your pictures to the admin email! admin@sacredheart.islington.sch.uk

Hello Reception P! 

I hope you are enjoying your time at home, spending extra special times with your families! I am sorry I wasn't in last week to see you before you went home - but I cannot wait to find out what you have been up to and I hope you have all been staying Ready, Respectful and Safe for your adults at home! 

Remember to read every day and practice phonics and counting - you could show your mums and dads how to do number time or even teach them how to use robot arms! We reached number 19 - can you practice number time with number 20 and show your mums and dads how to count out 20 and check your answer? 

I will be so impressed when we get back to school if you have all been practicing phonics with reading and writing - I have a challenge for you, can you write a sentence about something you have done each day and keep a diary so I can read it when we get back to school?

I hope you are using the learning packs we sent home for you, myself and Mrs Walsh are so proud of all of the work you have done so far - we know you can do even better at home because you are all learning super stars! 

Keep up the good work at home and we cannot wait to see you, don't worry Benny the Bear is keeping our classroom safe and clean, he cannot wait to have you all back in class. 

Remember to wash your hands and stay safe! 

See you soon, lots of love Miss Palmer, Mrs Walsh and Mrs Fennell. ​​​​​​​

Hello and welcome to Reception P. The class teacher is Miss Palmer; the LSA’s in class are Mrs Walsh and Mrs Fennell.

In reception we love junk modelling, so please keep any cereal boxes, egg cartons, bottles and toilet rolls for us to use in class and be creative!

We also love biscuit time at the end of the day! We welcome any donations of plain digestive or rich tea biscuits for us to enjoy before home time!

This term we will be settling into reception, getting to know our new friends and adults in class. We have a dress up shop, a construction and tinkering area, sand pit, number and mark making area and a large creative bench with a huge easel! We also get to use reception B’s classroom during our free flow time which has a lovely home corner, writing, water and book areas. We share our outdoor playground together and at lunch times we will get to go to the big front playground and play with the year 1 and 2 children.

In RE this term we will be learning about the creation story and will be learning our school prayers.

Please keep checking this page for pictures on what we have been getting up to in class!
