How we Learn in Year 1 ?

The Year 1 curriculum is delivered through carefully planned play based activities through which  children will develop their skills in:

• Communication
• Phonological Awareness
• Early Reading
• Early Mathematics
• ICT

Playful teaching and learning happens throughout Year 1 and builds on the experiences that the children have had at home and in pre-school settings. We know that play is crucial to children’s brain development. It contributes to positive mental health and wellbeing, develops skills such as resilience, problem-solving, sharing and negotiating, and most of all - it is fun!

When your child stays until 2pm......

Exciting times ahead as all Year 1 pupils will be staying in school until 2pm. Please share these videos with your child and talk about the changes in lunchtimes and home times. It is important that all children are aware of what will be happening to make the transition to the longer day as smooth as possible.
