Life in Reception

We have busy days filled with play, singing, laughter and discovery.

We are delighted to have you as part of our class and school family. 

Here at St Joseph's we aim to create a warm, happy and secure learning environment centred around play and discovery. We plan our curriculum and environment carefully to ensure that our children feel safe, secure and confident whilst learning skills and knowledge in a way which is meaningful to them.

During your child's time in reception, they will take part in a variety of activities and play-based experiences which aim to challenge, foster a love of learning and inspire their natural curiosity. We play outdoors in all weathers and we will regularly come home messy after a busy day in the mud kitchen, creation station and play dough area!

Please click the links below to see photos of all the amazing learning that takes place in Reception!  More personalised photos and observations will be uploaded on Evidence Me on a weekly basis. 

If you need to speak to me or have any queries, please email: reception@stjosephscatholicprimary.org or speak to the office and book an appointment. 

I am really looking forward to working with you all this year. 

Miss Laidler
