What makes us so special? 

Year 1 is a very special year, as it marks the transition from the Early Years environment to Key Stage 1.  Although we are moving towards a more formal classroom setting, and are learning to do lots of new and exciting things, we still make plenty of time to have lots of fun and continue to discover the world around us.  We have our own special outdoor area and enjoy spending ‘Muddy Mondays’ and ‘Welly Wednesdays’ outside, taking part in a range of fun and stimulating activities. 

Important dates

All important information and dates are shared on our parent communication - WEDUC. You will also find termly newsletters here. Please speak to the school office if you do not have access to this app. 

Reading

Reading every day is vital and parents must sign a child’s planner to show that this is happening. Children are rewarded using our ‘star chart’ system when they read at home and they record this on a class chart so we can work out how many children have read every night.
