A warm hello to all our new entrants and families. We are really looking forward to meeting you all soon. Here's a little information about our Reception Unit, where you will be coming to play and learn in September.

The Reception Unit at Croft is a busy, bright and exciting place to learn. We have two classes, and sometimes we learn separately and sometimes we all get together. We offer a wide range of playful learning activities, which cover all areas of the curriculum. The children can access this learning both indoors and outdoors.

Every day, we have a whole class phonics session, a maths session, topic time and shared reading. Throughout the school day there is a balance of adult led and also child-initiated activities, where the children can follow their own interests and ideas. We actively foster the Characteristics of Effective Learning in our children, encouraging them to explore, be confident, concentrate, persevere, be self-motivated, and 'have a go'.

Ultimately, we want all the children to settle quickly, feel happy and secure, be kind friends to each other and enjoy learning. We can't wait to get started!
