Welcome to Class 1 with Miss Bateman!
Welcome to Reception Class 1. Miss Bateman is the Class Teacher and is excited to welcome yourself, and your child to
The Wilmslow Academy.
Miss Christie and Mrs Ashton are our outstanding SEN TA's. They support our children with additional needs and are passionate about ensuring our SEN children meet their full potential, knowing that every child can learn, just not in the same way.
"We pride ourselves on getting to know our children as individuals and helping them become fantastic members of The Wilmslow Academy! Learning new skills is so important in Reception and we do a lot of our learning through play. In Reception, the children can follow their own interests, and topics are often catered to what the children like! Our Reception class is a creative, fun and warm environment to explore and learn in. We focus on subjects such as Phonics, Literacy and Maths, as these are the fundamental areas of Early Learning."
As well as learning new educational skills, we work on becoming members of a new school community. We learn to form new friendships, be more independent, follow structures and routines and to let our big personalities shine.
We feel it is really important to work closely with parents and carers in order to support your child's learning and development. If you have any questions or worries, or if you would like to talk to us about your child's progress, please let us know and we can arrange a time to meet for a chat. Please take a look at our half termly curriculum map to see the exciting learning that we will be covering in class.
To contact me, please feel free to email - kbateman@thewilmslowacademy.co.uk
Alternatively, you can catch me at the end of the school day.
Please note, our PE days are Tuesday (indoor PE) and Thursday (outdoor PE) , and our Welly Walk day is Friday.
Please ensure your child has a PE kit in school, this will be sent home at the end of each half term. Please also ensure your child has wellies in school at all times, as we may use them throughout the week.

Nursery Rhymes
Nursery Rhymes are a very important part of developing children's communication and language skills in the Early Years.
In Reception, we sing Nursery Rhymes and songs every day to boost our children's language development. Nursery Rhymes are a key thread in the curriculum that run through Maths lessons, Phonics and English lessons, dedicated Nursery Rhyme sessions and transition times.
