Welcome to The Riverside Federation. We are delighted that you have been successful in being allocated a place for your child to join our school. We would like to extend a warm welcome to you and your child from everyone at The Riverside Federation.

The Reception year is a very important time for your child at school and a very special time for you as parents and carers. We want to ensure that your child’s transition to school is a positive experience and runs as smoothly as possible for everyone. As a starting point, we have set up this page on our school website, dedicated to sharing information for our families of new starters.

On this page, you will find the information that we will share at the transition sessions. We have also uploaded some other useful information which will help you to support your child with their transition to school and to help you to feel prepared for this important stage in your child’s life. 

We look forward to seeing you soon and please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions.

Mrs Taylor & Miss Kay (EYFS teachers)
