We welcomed our wonderful reception parents/carers into school this week for a special storytime workshop. Mrs Flynn shared information about how we support children in reception with phonics and early reading/writing. Ideas were shared with parents/carers about how they can support their children at home. Our reception children then joined us to explore some of these interactive learning opportunities with their special adults. We loved having the opportunity to share our learning in school, and want to thank all of our fantastic parents/
