Welcome to Reception
'Let all that you do, be done in love’
1 Corinthians 16:14
Living Our Values Everyday
Mrs Chisholm is the Early Years Leader and class teacher for Dolphins. We have a variety of TAs who help support the unit.
The Reception unit at Scargill school aims to provide a provision of high quality teaching and learning within a stimulating, safe environment providing care and nurture to all pupils. All children are treated as individuals so that their own needs are met regardless of their background or starting point. The strong Christian ethos supports children well so that they complete their Reception year: self-motivated, independent, happy and energised, they will be creative, confident, secure and ready to continue their journey into becoming lifelong learners, to have the ability to form good relationships and be prepared for life.
At Scargill, we place great emphasis on these early years, seeking to provide a learning environment which offers the individual child a very positive beginning. The Reception children have a dedicated indoor and outdoor space within the School, giving them the opportunity to learn both inside and outside the classroom. They learn through play, adult led activities and through structured free play.
