Welcome to Reception
Mrs Hammerton is the teacher in Reception Monday to Thursday and Mrs Samtaney-Roberts is the teacher on Friday. Our teaching assistant is Mrs Bender.
The focus of our Reception curriculum is for all children to foster a love of learning. We carefully plan and sequence our curriculum to engage and stimulate children, with the overriding aim that our children will skip to school each morning, eager to start their learning.
Our children rapidly and systematically acquire knowledge of phonics and learn the code that allows them to read. The phonics program Addingham Primary School uses is Essential Letters and Sounds. The children apply and consolidate their learning of sounds during our group reading sessions and through staff sharing a wide range of books, rhymes and songs .
