Class 1 2024 - 2025

Welcome to Class 1!

Welcome back! I hope you had a restful half-term break. I’m excited to continue our learning journey in Autumn 2, with lots of new topics and activities planned. We have a fun yet busy half-term ahead, especially with the run-up to Christmas!

Reading

The children were excellent at remembering to bring their reading book bags in daily; let's ensure this continues! It is so important that you encourage your child to read regularly. The books the children bring home have keywords for you to discuss and questions to ask your child about what they have read.  Your child's reading book will be changed on Mondays and Thursdays and their library book will be changed on Mondays.

PE

PE will be on Tuesdays and Thursdays, but this could change depending on events. I recommend that your child bring their PE kit to school on Monday and then take it home on Friday.

Morning Routine

Your child is expected to be in the playground and lined up with their class by 08:45 when the school day starts. They will be greeted by their class teacher, who will then lead them into the classroom. Once 08:55 is reached, classroom doors will be closed, and children must enter through the main reception door, as learning will be well underway.
