Science Week 2025! Calling all students!

 

On the 10th - 15th March the children are going to be taking part in Science week. This week is lots of fun and the children have a great time exploring  and learning all about Science. 

This years theme is Adapt and Change. So we are asking all children to bring a plastic bottle to complete activties and learning within their year group. If you have any extra bottles to share we would be extremely grateful.

Could all bottles please be in school the week commencing the 3rd March. 

Thank you for your continued support,

What we are learning- Year 1

 

     

In literacy this week, we completed our writing assessments, this was to see if we were using our capital letters, finger spaces, full stops and adjectives correctly! We then did some role play to practise performing.

In maths this week, we did our maths assessments. We looked back at our knowledge on place value within 20. We also compared measurements of different objects and using cubes. Next half term we will be looking at addition and subtraction and place value within 50!

In topic this week, we have summed up what we have learnt about Mary Seacole and Florence Nightingale by taking on a quiz!

Apricot Class - Forest School

To Apricot Class parents, 

 After the half term, Apricot Class will taking part in their 2nd session of Forest school. 

Please could parents bring in the children's waterproof clothing and footwear on a Friday. Hopefully the weather will become a little dryer but we still need to be prepared.
