Welcome to Reception
We are delighted to welcome you and your child to our Reception team, led by Mrs Holbrook, Mrs Hutchinson, and Miss Gibbs. We are committed to providing a warm, nurturing, and engaging environment where your child can thrive, learn, and grow.
Throughout the year, we’ll be sharing updates, learning highlights, and important dates via Class Dojo. Please ensure you’re connected so you don’t miss out on what we’ve been up to in school and ideas for supporting learning at home.
If you ever have any questions or concerns, we’re here to help—feel free to speak to us at the beginning or end of the school day.
We look forward to a happy and successful year together!

Reception Phonics Link for Parents
At Laceby Acres Academy we use the Little Wandle phonics scheme. This page offers helpful resources to support your child with learning to say sounds and write letters. You’ll also find videos that show how these skills are taught in school, helping you feel confident when supporting your child’s reading at home.
To see the full learning journey, download our Reception and Year 1 teaching programme overview — it outlines what your child will be learning and when.
