Starting Reception

A warm welcome to our new Reception starters. We are delighted that your child will be joining our Reception classes this year. We know under the present circumstances you may feel a little uncertain about what will happen next and you will no doubt have lots of questions for us. Please be reassured your child’s introduction to our school is very important to us. We are working on plans to ensure it is a positive experience for all the children we are lucky enough to have in our care from September.

Here on our website you will find some useful information to read through. If your family is new to Pelham Primary School we’re hoping this information may answer some of your initial questions.

Google Meet Date & Times

We are very excited to be meeting you all ahead of September on our class Google Meets. This will be an opportunity for your new class teacher to say hello and introduce themselves to your children. We invite your children to say hello in return and tell or show us something to them. This could be a particular interest, hobby or even their favourite toy. We will end the Google Meet by sharing one of our favourite stories with you. Please ensure you join the correct Google Meet at the right time. We ask that you read the following guidance before joining.
