Today Reception were lucky enough to have a visit from ‘The Exotic Zoo’. 

We met some unusual creatures, learning facts about what type of animal they are.

We were all allowed to touch the animals, ensuring we took great care. Our teachers were so proud of us. 😊

Today Reception were lucky enough to have a visit from ‘The Exotic Zoo’. 

We talked about how to care for animals and listened to some ‘big words’ about the different types of groups the animals belonged to. 

The man from the Exotic Zoo then came round with each animal for us to have a close look. Some of us even chose to have a little stroke too. We were very brave and gentle with the animals when we touched them. 

It was so much fun! We wish the Exotic Zoo could come to school every day, especially the cheeky armadillo!

We are all so proud of Alfie this week! A huge well done for being our star of the week. You always listen really well, try your best and work hard. We have also noticed how kind you are Alfie. You share and take turns all of the time. What a star!

Yesterday, Reception were lucky enough to go on a school trip/adventure to Rock Church.

The children walked to the church and on the way looked at the new housing development in our local area. The builders were very busy at work.

When we arrived at the church we were greeted by a church minister and a man called Derek who has been a part of the church for 87 years!  The minister and Derek talked to us about the special signs, symbols and objects, found in a church, that are special to Christians. They even let us hold a HUGE book called the bible. It was very heavy!

Before we went back to school we enjoyed a biscuit and drink in the church hall.

Here are some photos of us on our trip. We hope you enjoy looking at them 🙂
