Early Years Stage
Welcome to the Reception Class
We would like to warmly welcome you to South Hill School and we are very much looking forward to supporting you and your child in your South Hill journey. This page contains information regarding the Early Years daily routines at South Hill.
The Early Years at South Hill School consists of two Reception classes, Wrens and Robins. Wrens class teachers are Mrs Suki Jandu on Mondays Mrs Lisa Clare from Tuesday to Friday, with Teaching Assistant Mrs Nipa Khan. Robins class teacher is Mrs Rich, with Teaching Assistant Mrs Stacey Smith. Miss Knapp is a Teaching Assistant across both classes
Robins class have PE on a Thursday and Wrens class have PE on a Tuesday. Children need to come into school in their PE kit on their day. They will wear their kit all day. Earrings (studs only) need to be removed or taped up at home on the day of their PE lesson.
Every day your child should bring a bottle of water to school which they can drink during the day. They then bring them home at pick up time. These must be labelled.
Please make sure that your child is appropriately dressed for the weather each day as we will be playing and learning outside come rain or shine! This means strong shoes and warm coats. The children will take part in Forest School sessions on a regular basis and will also explore our beautiful school grounds for other learning opportunities. Please supply a pair of wellies and ensure that they are clearly labelled with your child’s name. These can be kept in a bag on your child's peg.
We will be learning lots of exciting things over the coming terms, using both our indoor and outdoor areas. For information about Early Years and what we will be doing this term please see the links on this page.
Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any concerns or questions. We are here to help.
Mrs Jandu, Mrs Clare and Mrs Rich
