Published 06/11/26, by Jen SteeleWe have had another fabulous week in Year 1. They make us so proud every day. During the first week back we have drawn shells in art using our spiral skills, we have started learning the nativity story in RE, we have been learning to take away in maths and we have begun our writing unit on The Everywhere Bear.
Well done to Aqib and Toby who have earned the Value Being Special postcard this week.
Elia and Lexi got on the rocket.
Zhyar is our PE star of the week.
We have also started the 17 question Beat That test. The children tried so hard. We will start celebrating any improvements - whether that is going from 1 to 2 or 10 to 17, any improvement is fantastic!

Published 06/11/26, by Jen SteeleWe are sending home a QR code which links to videos of the sounds your child is learning at home. Being exposed to the sounds frequently and practising reading them in words will really help recall them at speed and increase their fluency. We appreciate your support with this at home too.
Please speak to one of us if you have any questions.

Read MoreThe Toy Museum
Published 02/10/26, by Jen SteeleWe had a very exciting history lesson this week where we got to visit the toy museum and explore toys from the past up to present day.
It was a joy to see the children so excited by the different toys and discussing what clues there were for whether they were from the past or the present and then how old we think they might be. Some of the children were even able to compare the materials toys were made out of and how that helped us put them into chronological order.
