Welcome to Year 1/2
Hello and a warm welcome from Mrs Hooton and Mrs Gavrilovic, the Y1/2 class teachers and Mrs Randall, Mrs Leach, Mrs Lee, Mrs Oshany and Mrs Holley who are our wonderful teaching assistants who work with us at different times throughout the week.
Here you will be able to find information about what is happening in the Year 1 and 2 classrooms and the learning experiences we are having. You will find key information about school events, our termly newsletter, topic web, web links and photos. Each term we will be learning through our ‘Big Question’ approach which relates our learning to a particular topic and subject area.
I am very excited to be teaching you this year and helping you to build on your skills and areas of interest, along with the help and support of your parents we will make good progress this year.
If you are a parent or carer and have any questions for me, please email the office at [email protected] who will pass on your message.
Term 1 - What makes us Unique?
This term, each class has focused on celebrating our similarities and differences. Each child has worked hard to improve their 'daily mile' time whether its been rain or shine! Our main outcome was to create a mini video demonstrating why we are all unique, which you can watch here.
A big thank you to all the parents who were able to come along to our 'Wonderful Wednesday'. We had a fantastic 192 parents and family members who came along to celebrate this term's learning. We understand that it is not always easy to take time off work and reschedule other things during the school day but hope you enjoy the video.
Term 3 - Can we Investigate?
This term, our big question was 'Can we investigate?'
We had lots of fun trying out a range of scientific skills alongside the other learning which took place. Here is a snapshot of the activities we experienced.
