Year One stepped back in time for Victorian Day, with some children arriving a little grubby after completing their morning chores. After a strict cleanliness inspection from the Headteacher, the class settled into their Victorian schoolroom. Working with chalk and slates in dim lighting, they sat in separate rows for boys and girls and followed the strict rules of the period. The day gave the children a real insight into life in the Victorian era, and they did a fantastic job adapting to the strict discipline and expectations of the time. #VictorianDay #victoriandayatschool #VictorianClassroom #LivingHistory #yearonehistory #multiacademytrust #greensandmultiacademytrust #reigate #surrey #surreyschools #surreyhills #reigateandbanstead

As part of our Lunar New Year topic, Reception have been exploring traditions by running their own Chinese restaurant. With red lanterns, handwritten menus, and their signature noodle dish, the children took orders, served customers, and practised using chopsticks. It was a wonderful way for them to learn about the celebration through imaginative play. #LunarNewYear #CulturalCelebration #chineserestaurant #imaginativeplay #foundationstages #infantschool #schoolreception #reigate #greensandmultiacademytrust #multiacademytrust #surreyschools #surrey #surreyhills #reigateandbanstead

In DT this week, Year One children got creative with puppet making, designing their own hand puppets. They thought carefully about how their puppets would look, selecting fabric and thread colours and features. Their ideas were transformed into finished puppets, each one with its own unique character. #YearOneDT #PuppetMaking #HandmadePuppets #CreativeLearning #PuppetProject #multiacademytrust #greensandmultiacademytrust #reigate #surrey #surreyschools #surreyhills #reigateandbanstead

Our nursery children had a wonderful time exploring our woodland area. They gathered around our log seat circle to talk about how to explore safely and how to look after one another. They then went for a walk, taking note of the wildlife, the seasonal changes, and all the different things they could see and hear, before finishing with a fun game of hide and seek. #OutdoorLearning #NatureExplorers #LearningInNature #EarlyYears #EYFS #infantschool #greensandmultiacademytrust #multiacademytrust #reigate #surreyschools #surrey #surreyhills #reigateandbanstead
