Wecome to Year 1
We have found that as children come up to Year 1 there is a need to allow them to go through a transitional process from Foundation Stage to Key stage 1. This is carefully monitored to help all of our children settle in safely and happily. 
Both outdoor and indoor areas are seen as invaluable for learning and teaching. We are very fortunate to have a wide variety of different environments for our children to explore. The children are in four classes in Year 1 and then are grouped for Literacy and Numeracy. 
Each half term storytellers, theatre groups and musicians are invited into the school to lead workshops. This ensures that the children are given a broad curriculum including creativity.
Year 1 are studying the local environment in geography, watercolours and self portraits in art, the body in science and simple adventure programs in ICT this half term. Don't be surpised if a teddy comes home to stay!
