Dressing up

As usual, Cabot staff and children have surpassed themselves with their knowledge of books and creative approaches to costumes.  I think my favourites this year are the crayons from 'The day the crayons quit' by Oliver Jeffers.  I was particularly impressed by the complete focus on learning displayed this morning in spite of all the new class members!

Bedtime Stories

Makes you feel sleepy just looking at them!

Reception parents/carers meetings

Thank you so much to all the parents/carers who have attended the reading meetings over the last few weeks. We have been busy learning about sharing books, comprehension and phonics. I hope you have enjoyed them as much as we have.  Please see the Reception blog for some lovely photos.
Happy reading!
