Our School Day in reception

We open the gates 8:30am

In Reception Classes, Busy Fingers forms the start of our day at 8:45am. Each morning children take part in an activity designed to strengthen their fine-motor skills. 

Registration is at 9am, after which children engage in planned lessons either from the Early Years Foundation Stage Framework or the National Curriculum. Lessons continue throughout the day from our broad and  balanced curriculum.     

Reading is an essential building block to all future learning. In Reception, children are taught phonics, a method of learning to read words. They will also learn comprehension skills to ensure they understand what they read.

'In the remembrance of God the heart finds Peace' (Qur'an 13:28)  At Hujjat Primary, we draw on children's innate sense of awe and wonder to nurture their relationship with God.

We promote a family dining experience where children and staff come together at midday, offering  prayers of gratitude before and after eating a healthy and nourishing meal.

Children have planned opportunities for Physical Development daily as well as a PE lesson per week. On PE days children will come to school dressed in their PE kits. 

The school day ends with reflection and story time. Children are collected from their classroom doors at 3:15pm, with a chance for parents to speak to the class teacher.
