Welcome to the 2025/2026 Year 1 Class page!

We hope you have had a lovely half-term break and are looking forward to a fantastic new term of learning. Our new Autumn 2 term topic is 'Splendid Skies'. This Science and Geography project develops children's knowledge about the seasons and weather. We will write postcards explaining about different weather and create weather poems.   

All of our learning is linked to books suitable for pupils' age and stage and to encourage reading for pleasure. We concentrate on a book each week; this term we are reading 'Blown away', 'After the fall', 'Up and down', 'The boy who lost his bumble' and 'An exceptional year'. We will also be focusing on the traditional tale 'Chicken Licken.      

PE (dance) will continue this term on a Tuesday and Thursday; please make sure your child comes to school with a P.E. kit, which will remain at school until the end of the half-term.   

Please continue to listen to your child read their phonic book daily (which is levelled at their current phonics stage) and share their reading for pleasure book. Please also sign the reading record. Children reading red and yellow phonic books will have a bookmark (kept in school) and will take part in the reading reward scheme where daily readers can earn a Bronze, Silver and Gold reading reward badge.

Please find attached at the bottom of the page our learning overview for this half-term together with the curriculum overview for the year. 

Please keep checking the website and Instagram for notices and to see photographs of the different things we have been up to during the school day!
