What a busy week we’ve had in Reception. We’ve had several visitors in this week and also a mini trip into Elm Park.

On Tuesday, Sue our Lolly Pop lady came to visit the children. She told us all about her job and how important it is to be careful when crossing the road.

The children have also had an opportunity to create their own vehicles using junk modelling materials. They worked in partners to complete their vehicles. They were brilliant at working together and produced lovely vehicles. In fact they did so well that the vehicles the have now been displayed on our main school stair case.

On Wednesday we had our Beep Beep day, where the children learned all about the importance of road safety and the Green Cross Code. We took the children into Elm Park to learn how to cross the road safely and also to look at the different road crossings. The children really loved this mini trip, and they are really good at explaining the road safety rules. They loved learning about road safety so much, they practiced their Road Safety skills on the road we have in our Reception garden.

We had a visitor from Mrs Divall, who works at Havering Catering. She told us how the cooks help us have a healthy diet. She told us all about how we need to have a rainbow of colours on our plate.

Finally we had a visitor from P.C Boyle. He spoke to the children about what a policeman does and how he keeps us safe. The children got to go inside his police van and listen to the sirens. It is safe to say the children had a brilliant time!

We hope you have a wonderful weekend.
