Reception at The Webber Independent School is an exciting time and the next step of your child’s Learning Journey to Success. We are determined to make their first experience of `Big School` a happy and positive one.
We encourage our Reception children to develop a curiosity that will inspire them to continue learning outside the classroom. With our well-equipped classrooms, outdoor play areas, and opportunities to discover local nature areas, no day will be the same for our intrepid explorers.
Reception is a constant hive of activity. One day, it may be a bustling Science Lab; the next, a Shop, a Library, or even a Space Centre preparing for its next launch!
Alongside all the fun and laughter, we follow the Early Years and Foundation Stage curriculum with a structured academic programme for literacy—including phonics, reading, and writing—and mathematical development. We then enhance our educational offering by incorporating modern foreign languages, Art, Music, IT, Yoga, and many other subjects taught by our degree-qualified, subject-specialist teachers.
We place huge emphasis and value on parent and teacher collaboration and encourage our Webber Families to be an active part of their child’s learning journey! With regular reporting, parent-teacher conferences, and communication, you will be updated with how your child is progressing on their learning journey, their strengths and areas for development, and their achievements and successes.
We host several family events throughout the year, including Mother’s Day Afternoon Tea and Father’s Day Breakfast. The Reception children put on a fabulous nativity play and perform at the Harvest Festival and end-of-year Awards Ceremonies. Children also enjoy several exciting trips throughout the academic year and take part in the Whole School events, including International Number Day, World Book Day, Sports Days, whole school choiring events, and many, many more.
Reception at The Webber Independent School opens a world of opportunities for our students!
