Welcome to the Year 1 Noticeboard

 

 

 

We hope you find the following information and photographs useful for keeping up to date with what is happening in your child's class.

 

Another great week in Year one- the children are really getting immersed in our new topic. They have enjoyed playing in the role play and have enjoyed crafts in the creative area. This week they have written some great sentences using adjectives. It is lovely to see the progress they are making with their writing and how independent they are becoming in their learning.

 

The children thoroughly enjoyed a visit from The Big Boot puppet Theatre on Monday.
