Year 1 have been busy in maths learning all about 3D shapes! They have also made pentomino and tetramine arrangements! A tetromino is made from 4 squares joined edge to edge and a pentomino is made from 5 squares joined edge to edge.

As part of our inspiration day to launch our new topic, Unity in the Community , Year 1 enjoyed a local walk around the area surrounding our school, where they looked carefully for different road signs. During the walk, the children identified a range of signs and symbols and discussed the actions they tell us to take, such as stop, slow down, or speed up.

Together, they explored what to do if they ever feel worried or unsure, and who they can go to for help. The PCSO explained that not all strangers are unsafe and helped the children identify safer

Year 1 had a fantastic time today looking for signs of winter as part of their science learning. The children explored the school grounds with great excitement and curiosity, and they were thrilled to discover snow along the way! It was a wonderful hands-on experience that helped them spot seasonal changes and enjoy the magic of winter.

Year 1 have been exploring the sense of smell in their science lessons this week. There were lots of surprised reactions — not all the smells were to their liking!

A huge thank you to all the parents and carers who attended Year 1’s Design and Technology workshop! The children absolutely loved sharing their learning with their grown-ups and worked hard to create some wonderful bags — perfectly suitable for Tinkerbell! We hope you enjoyed spending time with us and seeing the children’s creativity in action. Thank you also for your kind comments and continued support. "This has been a wonderful workshop.
