A warm welcome to Owl Class. We are a very happy and caring team who learn through fun and hard work. Year 1 is a big step up for the children and our priority is to ensure that your child feels happy and safe. We aim to encourage independence and confidence as the children move on through the school. We have an exciting year ahead and are looking forward to many great learning activities and adventures.

This term we will be learning about space. We will be reading lots of stories about space travel, aliens and far away planets. We will be creating poetry, stories and non-fiction texts on the subject.

We will be learning about the life of famous astronauts and the events of the first moon landing. We will create art work, models and music related to these events. 

We will be finding out about ourselves, our needs and therefore the reasons we are best suited to life on earth. We will also be considering how our needs are met when travelling into space.

Madame Pond will be leading our interactive French sessions on a Thursday morning. The children learn through a variety of exciting interactive activities. 

The children will be learning in Forest School every Tuesday with Mrs Connery and Mrs Mochere. Please ensure your child is suitably wrapped up during the cold winter months.  We will be doing PE each week, usually on a Friday. Please ensure your child has their kit each day though as there may be other physical sessions throughout the week.
