We have had another lovely day in Pebble class!

The children have been busy exploring the classroom and making new relationships with their teachers and classmates.

There are lots of simple ways you can support your child as they settle into Reception:

• Establish a good routine – Regular bedtimes and wake-up times help children feel rested and ready for the day.

• Ensure plenty of sleep – Young children need around 10–12 hours of sleep each night to be able to concentrate and enjoy learning.

• A healthy breakfast – Starting the day with a nutritious breakfast gives children the energy they need for busy mornings.

• Encourage independence – Give your child time to practise dressing themselves, putting on shoes, and especially using the toilet independently.

• Healthy habits – Support your child in brushing their teeth twice a day and making healthy choices.

• Talk positively about school – Share your enthusiasm and encourage your child to talk about their day. This builds their confidence and helps them look forward to learning
