Reception Daily Update - Monday 2nd November 2026

Today’s focus: Literacy

Today we started our new Topic ‘People who help us’ - we read our focus story ‘Emergency’ by Margaret Mayo and discussed all the different people that help to keep us safe.

Our EYFS focus: Understanding the World; Physical Development; Personal, Social and Emotional Development.

Discuss at home:

How many emergency services were listed in this book?

Have you ever met an emergency worker?

Which service would you like to work for?

Words we used: beaming gushing revving rapid siren blazing zooming
