We have loved giving the outdoor area a good tidy and preparation for summer term learning in the ☀️ #EYFS

Such a great day preparing for the summer term. We can’t wait to welcome our children back into Reception class on Monday #SummerTerm #EYFS

We talk a lot about the importance of early years & getting it right from the start. Across our trust, including new schools joining us, this is part of our DNA. Together, we’re continually challenging ourselves to strengthen provision & give our youngest learners the very best!

Creating the best start ❤️

Another busy week of inquiring in @jcaeyfs - we are so interested in learning about sea creatures that glow! We have also been busy outside connecting and exploring lengths and heights!

Reception continued exploring colour mixing beautifully this morning to create individual art work. We were inspired by our artist to sketch and paint our own fish for our whole-class ocean canvas! @jcaeyfs @JCA__Art

Reception have loved their first World Book Day at JCA! They enjoyed talking about their costumes and their favourite books with friends! @JCA_Reading

Wakefield Library is a wonderful place to be! It is fabulous to hear of Reception children going to visit on a weekend to find more books about their interests! #readintoit #NationalYearofReading @WFlibraries @JCEnglishHub

Wonderful curriculum networks across the trust. A time to reflect, evaluate regime & move forward for all children. This one was @JCAWakefield reflecting on the very best start with a particular focus on writing. #CurriculumNetworks

Reception are completely immersed in their new theme: Under the sea! @jcaeyfs

Reading for pleasure is always fun in Reception, especially when we discover fold-out books! We also love retelling our repeated reads: this week we are reading “The Rainbow fish” @JCA_Reading #Nationalyearofreading2026
