Advent

Year 1 have had another great week at the start of Advent. We walked to church for a lovely service and enjoyed decorating our school tree with messages of joy! After loving the story of Zog, we have started designing our own dragons, imagining what they look like and what special skills they have!

Maths, geography and forest school

This week, the children have enjoyed sorting and investigating 2and 3D shapes. We have been learning the names of the continents and some of us had a go at tying knots before toasting crumpets at forest school.

A cold week!

We have had a busy week in the cold weather. In science, we have been looking at the season of autumn and now we have started making observations about the start of winter! At forest school we roasted marshmallows on our whittled sticks around a cosy fire! We also enjoyed sharing another reading morning. 

Another busy week

Year 1 have enjoyed another busy week. We marked remembrance day on Monday as a school. On Wednesday some of the children enjoyed their first forest school session, planting new trees on our school grounds. We have been ‘choosing respect’ for anti bullying week and had a lovely workshop this morning celebrating diversity. Look out on Seesaw for our fireworks poem performed with sound effects!
