School Readiness Skills

School Readiness Skills 

Following on from the transition from Nursery to Reception we are continuing to support skills such as; handwashing, putting on/off coats, shoes and jumpers. 

We are encouraging the childne to be responsible for their own belongings, puting them away in their trays and on their pegs. 

Please support your child in becoming more independent by practising these skills at home, such as:

• filling a cup with water from the tap
• using the toilet and washing hands
• taking off jumpers, coats and shoes
• zipping up coats

Please refer to the document listed in 'files' on the Reception page for more information on 'Starting Recepetion'. 

We recommend children bring a spare set of clothes to school in case of any toileting or water play accidents that may occu throughout the day.
