Class 1

Welcome to Class 1!

 

 

Welcome back! We are excited to get to know everyone and hear all about what you've been up to over the Summer holidays. Year 1 is an exciting and challenging year and we are looking forward to working together to enthuse and motivate each child to reach their full potential in a positive, encouraging environment. 

 

In Class 1 the children follow a structured timetable, which allows them to be taught by specialist subject teachers. During the morning sessions Mathematics and Literacy are studied, where a variety of activities and strategies to suit the different learning styles are used in order stimulate and engage all learners. Extra-curricular activities and trips are an outstanding feature of the school. During this term, the children in Class 1 will visit Weston Park to enhance their learning about toys from the past.  Swimming lessons take place on a weekly basis, culminating in a swimming gala at the end of the final term.

 

Class 1, do you have any ideas for this page? Why not let your Teacher know!

In Science we have been investigating what seeds need to grow well. We planted some cress seeds and placed them in different conditions for a week. Some had water and light, some were placed in a dark place and some had no water. We were curious to see what happened! As we had predicted the seeds that grew best had both water and light (May 2018).
