Happy New Year!
It has been wonderful to welcome the children back to school, bright-eyed, enthusiastic, and ready to learn.
Year 1 kicked off the term with an exciting start to our new English topic. Over the Christmas break, a mysterious crash site appeared in the school hall! After investigating, the children discovered that we have a friendly alien called Beegu visiting our school. This sparked lots of imagination and creativity, with the children designing lost posters, writing detailed descriptions, and making predictions about what might happen next in Beegu’s story.
In Maths, the children have been extending their place value knowledge by exploring numbers up to 20.
In RE, they began thinking thoughtfully about who the special people in their lives are and why they matter to them.
Our budding artists completed their drawing unit in Art by creating artwork inspired by the style of Paul Klee, producing some fantastic final pieces.
In PE, the focus has been on team-building activities, encouraging cooperation, communication, and problem-solving skills.
In Geography, the children started their new local area topic by learning about different types of settlements and ordering them from largest to smallest.
It has been a brilliant start to the term, and we are looking forward to all the exciting learning still to come!
