Year 1 Christmas Stay & Play

 

 Year 1 Christmas Stay & Play

Thank you to all of the parents and carers that came to our Christmas performances in Year 1. The children enjoyed performing the Christmas songs that they had learnt and I am sure you can agree that they did an amazing job. It was lovely to have you all in the classrooms for the sessions crafting, writing Christmas wishes and making the most of our photo spots!

Thank you for your continued support in 2025,we look forward to welcoming all of our lovely children back in 2026!

This week, the children and their teachers came together to celebrate Christmas with a special shared meal. Everyone enjoyed a delicious traditional Christmas roast dinner, making it a joyful and memorable occasion.

Year 2 have been busy learning how to sign Silent Night in British Sign Language and they did a wonderful job performing it in today’s KS2 assembly. The children showed great focus and resilience as they practised the signs and worked hard to remember the sequence, supporting one another along the way.

 It was lovely to see their confidence shine as they shared their learning with the rest of the school. This work links to Broadford’s Language of the Term, celebrating communication in all its forms and helping our children appreciate the importance of inclusion and expression.

Year 2 Christmas Dinner

This week in Year 2, we had a very special treat as the children enjoyed their Christmas dinner together. Everyone looked wonderful wearing their festive Christmas clothes, which helped create a really cheerful atmosphere. 

The hall was filled with happy chatter and Christmas music playing in the background, making the occasion feel extra magical. All of the children thoroughly enjoyed the experience and it was lovely to see so many smiling faces as we celebrated the season together.

Year 1: What We Are Learning w/b 8th Dec 2025

 

Year 1: What We Are Learning 

This week in Maths, we’ve been busy solving addition and subtraction problems in lots of fun ways! We used a number line to jump forwards and backwards, the part–whole model and bar model to split numbers into parts. Well done, Year 1!

Year 1 have also been learning about materials that absorb water. The children experimented using a pipette to apply droplets of water to different materials. They were surprised by some of their findings as not all the materials reacted to the water in the way they expected!

This week, the children have been working hard on their letter formation. In Literacy, they edited and rewrote a diary entry from the perspective of Traction Man, making sure to write neatly on the lines. 

Well done Year 1 for an amazing week - keep up all your brilliant work!

Year 2 Santa Dash

 Year 2 Santa Dash

Our Year 2 children had a wonderful time taking part in our festive Santa Dash today! The playground was filled with excitement as the children, all proudly wearing their bright Santa hats, ran and giggled their way around the course. 

 The Santa Dash was a joyful way to celebrate the season, stay active and spread a little Christmas magic across the school.
