Year 2025-26

Welcome to the Year 1 class page for the year 2025-26. We will update this page regularly but there are many resources already on here for phonics, literacy and maths already. 

 

Below are the curriculum letters for the year so you can see what you can be doing to help your child through that half term. 

 

Our PE days are Tuesday and Thursday, so please make your child comes to school in their PE kit. On Monday and Thursday, we will be changing reading books. Please make sure you sign and date every time your child reads, in their reading record, otherwise their book will not get changed. Reading is super important for the children and will help with their phonics, so please have an adult listen to your child read whenever possible.

 

Thank you!

🐾 Year 1 – Meet a Creature! 🐾

 

Year 1 had a very exciting visitor this week – Meet a Creature! The children had the chance to see, touch and even handle some incredible animals, including:

 

🦎 Leopard geckos

🐹 Guinea pigs

🌿 Stick insects

🐌 Giant snails

🐍 A corn snake & a python

🐉 A bearded dragon

🐢 A tortoise

🦂 A scorpion

🐭 A chinchilla

 

The session was full of fascinating facts, and the children learnt all about different animal groups and classifications. It was a wonderful opportunity to get hands-on and up close with some creatures they might never have seen before.

 

📸 Make sure to keep an eye out for the photos – especially the ones of a very brave (but slightly scared!) Mrs Harling holding the python!

 

What an unforgettable day for Year 1! 🐍
