Bluebell Class and Primrose Class

Our Year 1 classes are called Bluebell and Primrose. In Year 1, we work together to build relationships with each other and to improve our social skills. We try hard to become confident and fluent readers, capable and creative writers and logical and imaginative problem solvers! We work together in a play based environment and begin to use and apply the skills we are taught throughout all of our lessons. We will be doing lots of outdoor learning this year, which will help us to understand the environment and to learn in a practical way. We will also be doing lots of cooking over the course of the year.

This year we begin our Topic work on ‘Location, Location, Location’. This will involve learning about the UK and capital cities, the patron saints and traditional food. Other topics this year include 'I have the power', 'Out of this world', 'If you're happy and you know it', 'Once upon a time' and 'Land Ahoy!'.

Outdoor Learning

We love using our outdoor area to continue our learning experience. We are lucky to have a wonderful canopy, so that we can explore and learn outside all year round!
