Year 1 -What we are learning

What a week! The Year 1 team are extremely proud of the children and how they performed at the Nativity. With only 3 weeks of practice the children put on a lovely show and danced and sang with confidence. Unfortunately the children got a little restless and tired during the second performance, but they were still amazing in our eyes! We hope that you enjoyed watching your children being superstars.

Christmas Jumper Day 

Children had lots of fun wearing their Christmas jumpers, they all looked so great! The children took part in different Christmas activity's and may have sang some jolly Christmas songs! 

   

 

Could we please ask that all children are reading and practising their spellings at home. It is important for your children’s learning that they are having access to reading as much as much as possible.
