Year 1
Welcome to Year 1: The Flamboyant Flamingos and Magnificent Monkeys!
We have lots of exciting learning activities planned for the year ahead based around the themes of plants, animals, toys and weather. We make each topic a hands on learning experience and enhance our work as much as possible with trips out and visitors to our school. We are also very lucky to be visited once a week by the team at Yogabugs.
In Year 1 we feel that it is important for the children to share their experiences with you so we encourage you to discuss their learning with them at home and join in the fun!
We always welcome you into school to see if you have any questions or would like help to support your child.
We hope you and your child enjoy Year 1 just as much as we do!

The children in R/1A really enjoyed working with a visiting sculptor to help create 'Oliver Twist' inspired sculptures ready for World Book Day next year. The children worked really hard and are looking forward to seeing the completed sculptures around school soon!

The children in the Flamboyant Flamingos class have spent today finding out about why we see so many people wearing a poppy. We went outside to take part in the 2 minute silence at 11am and we have spent the day making our own poppies.

The children have had a fantastic time during our Outdoor Wow Day. They were finding out about the wildlife around our school grounds. They enjoyed pond dipping, bird watching, mini beast hunting and building a bug hotel! Take a look at some of our photos below.

The children had a great time finding out about the different types of animals, the meerkat was a firm favourite with everyone but the tarantula was a bit scary!
