Class 1

Welcome to Year 1!                                         2024 - 2025 

Our teaching team includes Mrs Avis (Class Teacher), Mrs Sherratt (Class Teacher), Mrs Rourke (HLTA), Mrs. Rutter (Teaching Assistant), Ms Khan (Teaching Assistant) and Mrs Potts (HLTA).

 We are looking forward to sharing all the great learning experiences we have in store for your child.  Keeping you, as parents / carers, informed is very important to us, so we would like to share some important information with you. 

Important Information 

•  PE will be every Monday and Thursday, but please have your PE kit in school every day, as plans may change and it is crucial that all children can take part. It is a great idea to make sure your child’s name is on all their school uniform and P.E. kit.  

• Please read your e- book with your child every day to develop their reading skills and nurture their love of reading

READING IS THE BEATING HEART OF OUR SCHOOL!

• School e -books will be changed when they have practised reading them at home and are reading the book fluently. 
• We will visit the Key Stage One Library every Friday, so your child may choose a different book to share at home if they have returned their library book.  In addition to this, they may take a Sharing book home each day if they have returned the Sharing book that they previously took home. 
• These Sharing books are just that - for you to read to or with your child and enjoy reading for pleasure!
• Each child will also get the opportunity to take our ‘Book Bear’ home for a week to snuggle up to and enjoy sharing a story with!

If you have any questions or issues you would like to discuss, please feel free to talk to a member of the team at the beginning or end of the day. You may also contact us via email.

There will be lots of exciting learning going on in Year 1 this year. Please follow us on Twitter to keep up to date with all our exciting adventures!
