Fathers Day

This week we celebrated Fathers Day and made cards!

We also completed the Phonics screen check. Not only did some of the children do exceptionally well but everyone was very focused and and tried their best.

BIG TICK FOR YEAR ONE!!!!

HAPPY FATHERS DAY…….

Architects, Readers and Thespians

We have been learning all about “Iggy Peck Architect” this week. We have learnt that a whole can be split into two equal halves. On Friday we were very excited to take part in a drama workshop.

We have been practising reading alien words and words with the split digraph or “magic “e””.

May 12th 2023

Another short and busy week with some hints of what is to come.

Coronation Week

Year 1 have had a week preparing for the King’s Coronation.

On Wednesday, the children learned about the importnat landmarks in London which will be seen by the King as he travels through London in his carriage. The children made pictures and wrote about the King, and have made a beautiful display which can be seen in the assembly hall. The children also learned the words to God Save the King in their music lesson.

Amongst the work on display is some of the computing work which the children have been involved with. In computing they have designed coronation pictures using a paint software.

Finally, today we had our own roayl photo booth whereby the children each had the photgraph taken of them wearing their red, white and blue clothes.

We wish you all a lovely bank holiday weekend celebrating the King’s coronation.

Year 1 go swimming

Here we all are, after our first swimming lesson at Westminster Lodge. We were superstars and showed that we are ready to learn new skills all the time!

Easter Week at School

We have looked at the Easter Story and coloured our palm Sunday crosses. We have learned about different Easter traditions around the world and decorated a German inspired Easter Branch.

View from my desk!

Then the wonderful Easter Gardens arrived and they were a fantastic display.

They were beautifully creative and inspirational. Congratulations to all the children! I wish they were here all the time (the gardens).

It has been such a busy but fruitful term in Year 1. I am looking forward to returning in the Summer term,to hopefully more outdoorsy weather and great learning. I hope you all have a wonderful holiday with crafty fun and outdoor adventures.

HAPPY EASTER!
