-The Reception Year in Action will take the understanding of outdoor play, teaching and learning to a new level. Everyone who is involved with early years education and care should read this book!-
Helen Bilton, University of Reading, UK
-This is a fantastic book... it shows exactly how an excellent reception class is organised and run. There is a clear theoretical underpinning to the practice described and the photos really bring the text alive.-
Margaret Edgington, independent early years consultant and trainer

They learn and develop if they are in a stimulating environment which is carefully organised and when observations are used to support their -next steps-. They take risks and surpass expectations when they have clear routines and boundaries, combined with a supportive staff and an enabling environment.
