Welcome to Year 1
Yay - you are in Year 1! We hope you are as excited as we are to have a fun and interesting term. There is so much to learn and discover.
What will we be learning in Year 1 this term? Find out below
Science
In Science this term we will be looking at the 4 seasons. This will include how the environment around us changes and the UK weather patterns.
Can you name the 4 seasons?
Do you know which months are in each season?
Some websites to try:

R.E.
Our key question is: What do Christians believe God is like?
In this unit, we will be learning about how Christians show their belief in God and what the parables say about God.
Art / Design Technology
Our Art and D.T. will link to our Science and will include using different media to make weather pictures.
PE
P.E. this term will be
1B - Tuesday
1A - Tuesday
It is important that children have their P.E. kits in every day in the event of a workshop, and as the weather continues to be grim, that children have appropriate outdoor wear.
Only shorts and t-shirt for inside......NO EARRINGS please!
Geography
This term we will be looking at the main areas within the United Kingdom (UK), identifying the main hot and cold places in the world and how the seasons differ around the world.
Worries or concerns
A worry or concern is best addressed as soon as it occurs, so please let us know so we can try to sort it out before it becomes enormous! We can talk most days after school, or if more convenient we can make a phone call and talk to you on the phone. Just write a note to us and ask your child to pass it on, so that we can arrange a suitable time to talk things through.
