This half term the reception children are learning about different countries around the world. Last week we were learning all about India. The children were very lucky to have a professional Indian drummer come in to school to answer our questions about India and to show us some Indian drumming on the  tabla. The children loved dancing to the drum beat and having a go on the tabla!

This half term the reception children have been completing a home learning challenge to help support their phonics learning. At Gunthorpe we are proud of our strong partnerships with parents as we believe this is key for children's success in learning. We enjoyed celebrating the completion of the phonics challenge today with an award ceremony.
