Children Return to School - Monday 7th June 2021
Please read the information below around drop off times. These times will stay in place whilst we are unable to use the 'Park and Stride'.
Please see the parent section of the website and recent emails for more updates.
Welcome back to our final topic of the Summer term!
Our topic this term is 'Michael Recycle'. The children will be learning all about recycling and ways to look after our planet. We will be focusing on the story of 'Michael Recycle' and we will also examine a variety of different genres and literature related to our topic.
The children will be exploring ways we can look after our local area and planet. We will brainstorm ways in which we can help make our world a better place, using ICT to promote this. In addition, we will be continuing with our boat designs this term. Last term the children designed their own boat which they thought would be the best to use in water and would carry the most marbles. This term we would like to create our designs using recycled materials. Please bring in any spare materials you have at home as we will reuse these in class.
I look forward to hearing the children's ideas for our new topic when they return to school. You are always welcome to email with your exciting ideas too!
We will be learning through the six areas of learning and experience. We always ensure that all of our activities are fun and exciting and are chosen by the children. I look forward to sharing the children's creations and work with you via Twitter this term.
Christian Value of the Term : Peace
The children will be learning about different kinds of peace including peace that comes when it is quiet, the things that make for peace of mind and the qualities of a peacemaker.
PE will take place on: Tuesday
Children need to bring in black shorts, white/house coloured t-shirt and trainers.
Please return to school every Tuesday
In preparation for reading your child will bring home a RWI sound mat and key words to develop their reading skills. Please can you practise these as much as possible. Please contact me for any support.
In Year 1 we will be having daily snack. Please pay for this using Parent Pay.
(Children are currently unable to access snack in school. However, milk and toast is provided daily).
Read Write Inc is the phonic scheme we will be using this year. This approach helps children to develop their reading and writing skills whilst also having fun.
These are set 1, 2 and 3 sounds that we will be learning this year.
Here are some of the rhymes to help you!

We will be learning a variety of different numeracy skills this year and we will be using the outdoors to explore numeracy in fun ways.
This website is great for consolidating new maths skills and for the children to practise different numeracy skills whilst enjoying fun games.
