Welcome to Year 1
A very warm welcome to our Year 1 class page.
Learning through practical and concrete activities helps children's confidence to blossom as they quickly develop the skills to become even more independent in their learning. We work as a team to develop our knowledge and understanding and are guided by our values of ready, respectful and safe.
The Year 1 team are all committed to providing the best learning experiences possible and are on hand if you have any have any questions.
We are looking forward to a busy but fun year where we will all have our time to shine!
