Reception - Rabbits and Hedgehogs


In Rabbits and Hedgehogs, we love to play outside and explore all the different areas from making potions in the water area to digging for treasure in the sandpit. In our garden we have our very own stage where we can dress up and create performances for our friends to watch. We also love to play in our mud kitchen where we whip up lots of delicious recipes . As well as this we also have a fantastic wood work area.

Inside our Rabbit and Hedgehog classroom we enjoy doing reading and love taking books home to share with our families. We are good at junk modelling, choosing our own equipment and resources to make things using our imagination.

 

Every morning, we do ‘Swiggle while you wiggle’. Where we do singing and dancing. Which is lots of fun! We are good at learning poems and stories where we make up our own actions. We are also very lucky as every week we get to go to the woods. We love going to the woods because we get to climb trees, go on bug hunts and make interesting discoveries.

 

In Rabbits and Hedgehogs, we are happy, kind children who look after each other. We are great at sharing and love playing with our friends in our class and the children in Owls and Otters.
