Primary School" --- # 😊 Kind Hearts and Active Minds in Reception ![](https://files.schudio.com/st-stephen-s-ce-primary-school/images/blog/IMG_0138.JPG) 18 September 2026 [Reception Blog](https://www.ststephenscofe.durham.sch.uk/blog/category/reception-blog) We have had a very successful week in reception. All children are continuing to work hard and enjoying school life! We are focussing on being kind to one another and the children are trying their very best with their friends to show their kindness. This week we participated in our very first Get So Go lesson- a physical exercise session in the hall. The children absolutely loved this. They will learn why exercise is important and how to keep fit and healthy. We are visiting Forest School every Friday, weather permitting.
