Welcome to Reception!

Our classes are named after two birds that we might see around our local area! We are so lucky to have Sheldon Country Park so close to us. 

Sheldon Country Park has lots of trees, flowers and a farm right next to a busy airport. It covers 300 acres and contains grassland, wetland, old hedgerows and mature woodland.

Can you recognise which bird is a Starling and which bird is a Kingfisher?

Mrs Mason will be teaching Starling Class.

Miss Hatfield and Miss Young will be teaching Kingfisher Class.

Ask your child which class they are in!
