Reception - Miss Holyoak

Welcome to the Reception page. Here parents/carers can find lots of important information regarding your child's education here at Grangetown Primary School. I am so excited to get started with our lovely class of 27 children. In the Reception classroom there will be two main members of staff. Miss Holyoak is the class teacher and Miss Pickering is the teaching assistant. We will also have extra support from Miss Hope and Miss Haley, to support with reading and interventions, where needed.

Tuesday 6th September- Children return to school (please see letter for Reception's first week back).

Reading Volunteers?

We are also looking for parent/carer volunteers who would like to come into school weekly, to read with the children. Please contact the office or speak to Miss Holyoak if you are interested. If selected, one of the children you will read with will be your own child. Training will be provided. Please note that, before starting, a full (enhanced) DBS check is needed for all adults accepted as volunteers in school.
