Year 1 Class Page
Welcome to Year 1
Year One is so much fun and we’ll be learning lots of new things in lots of exciting ways.
Your child will grow in confidence and independence as they begin their journey into Key Stage One. There’ll be opportunities to consolidate previous learning and learn new things that build on what they already know. We will learn through hands on experiences, collaboration and play.
Teachers and teaching assistants will be available for you to talk to before and after school each day. Please speak to us if you have any questions, concerns or if you just fancy a catch up. We want to make sure your child has the best possible time in Year One.
We will update our class page with some of the exciting things we’ve been up to over the year so please check back to see what we’ve been up to.
