Year 1

Hello and Welcome to Year 1!

In Year 1, we are taught by Mrs Hanna and Mrs Dennison.  Supporting us in class is Miss Banks.

Autumn 2025

This first half term, our topic in Year 1 is seasonal change. We will be investigating lots of different stories, as well as going on some autumn walks and creating some beautiful, seasonal art.

In the second half term, we will be learning about war and remembrance then moving on to look at toys, then and now. We are hoping to go on some wonderful trips, ending the term designing our own toys!

Thank you for your continued support.
