Willington Prep - Celebrating 140 years - 1885-2025
Another busy week in Year 1! In Maths, we used our work on multiples last week as a launchpad for further practice of sharing, and the children are definitely growing in confidence with the concept of division. It was the final week of our English unit on ‘The Bog Baby’ and both classes planned, prepared for and produced some wonderful written pieces inspired by the text.
In Science, our ‘Animals’ topic moved on to mammals, thinking about those which travel in the sea, on the land and in the air. Our Geography activity was creating season spinners, to help us understand how a farm changes throughout the year. In History, following on from our wonderful trip to Brooklands Museum last week, we learnt about the first aeroplanes to fly successfully.
Have a great weekend!

THE WEEK AHEAD:
Outdoor Learning, Thursday 13th February: Please remember raincoats, warm layers, wellies/sturdy shoes and small backpacks. As we will be participating in a birdwatching activity, if you have children’s binoculars at home, please feel free to send them in (named please).
No Pens Day, Friday 14th February: Please see the email from Miss Beadle regarding the ‘Show and Tell’ taking place across the school. As a link to Valentines Day, your child might choose to share about something/someone/somewhere they love. Do feel free to upload a photo or video if this is more appropriate or you would prefer not to send in an object your child has chosen to share. During Willington Wow Time in the afternoon, we would like to facilitate an opportunity for junk modelling, so it would be amazing if you could send in some boxes, tubes, egg cartons etc. on Friday, so we have a good variety on offer. Thank you for all your support!
Please can children in 1B bring in a tupperware/tub to take home their plasticine models from Science before half term. Thank you!
