• What are we learning this term?

Hello Polar Bears and Seals! 

Welcome to the Year 1 page!

We hope you have had a wonderful Christmas and Happy New Year. Thank-you for your kind gifts, cards and Christmas wishes as we ended the Autumn term.

We can't wait to start 2026 with you all. 

What a surprise to get some snow for our first few days back!

Our topics this term are  'Fantastic Fantasies!' followed by 'Discovering Dinosaurs'. We will be learning about 'Everyday Materials' and continue to explore 'Seasons' in Science. In Geography we will be learning all about 'The United Kingdom' and in History we will discover and explore 'Castles and Knights'. 

Please carry on supporting your child by reading at home with them as often as possible and access bug club when you can. Children who read at home, get a star on their star chart each week. Once this is full they can choose a prize! Bug Club contributes to the home reading, so please record in their diary.

It is vital, where possible, that you help your child to develop their reading and phonic skills supporting fluency and vocabulary development. Ask your child to help write a shopping list or read labels, these small shared activities can go a long way.
