Latest news in Reception

This week in our Reception classes, the children have been busy working on their handwriting. Every day, the children in Reception get a visit from Marvin the Monkey.  Marvin is a friendly, stripey monkey who teaches the children to write cursive letters. Each letter he teaches them has a story and a picture to help them remember how to write the letter correctly. Marvin has two golden rules - start on the line every time and start with a little smile. Every day, Marvin looks at the children's handwriting and if he is really pleased with the children, he gives them a special Marvin clap. Look how quickly and beautifully the children have learnt to form their letters. At Roebuck Academy we are writers.
