Outdoor learning- Science

We had such a great afternoon exploring our own habitat. We were looking at microhabitats and what animals we would find. We predicted what we would find and we were correct with our predictions. We looked at each insect we found in detail identifying what it was. It was so nice to see all the children exploring and learning outdoors.

School Closure Update: Tomorrow

Due to the heavy snowfall and for the safety of our students and staff, the school will be closed tomorrow. While we are shut, I have set some optional learning activities to keep your brains ticking over: please spend some time reading your books, practising your spellings in your homework books, and working on your 2, 5, and 10 times tables.

However, since we don’t get snow days very often, I truly hope you take the time to wrap up warm and enjoy the weather! If you can, please take some pictures of your snowy adventures to share with the class when we return. Stay safe and warm, and we look forward to seeing you all on Monday!

On Monday please could children bring in wellies or shoes you don’t mind getting dirty ready for fun we have planned for science 🙂

Homework is given out on a Thursday, including spellings. This is to be returned the following Friday.

Reading books will be sent home daily, we would appreciate your help to support your child to access their reading book 3-4 times per week.

In homework books will be one task and a list of spelling for children to practise ready for their spelling test. The spellings are all based of sounds we are learning in phonics and common exception words from year 1 and 2.

KS1 Nativity

We are very excited in KS1 as we have casted our nativity.

Please check children’s bags to know their role in the nativity and if they have words they will be in their bags too!

If you have any costumes you would like to donate from previous years please hand to a member of the KS1 team.
