Our new display boards in the Community Room have been populated with the work of our hardworking pupils.
Toffee, our attendance bear, joined us in the allotment today. We took advantage of the beautiful weather to replant some of our lettuce seeds into bigger pots. We can’t wait to see them grow!

On Friday, Y1M were so excited to finally celebrate 10 weeks of excellent attendance (97% or above). We earned a full afternoon treat and after lots of suggestions, including McDonalds delivery, we decided to have an Movie afternoon.
The children chose to watch ‘Big foot family’, we had cinema snacks and had a brilliant time! We all agreed, “We should do this more often”. Toffee Bear enjoyed it too.
I am so proud of the children in Y1M, they are the best attending class in school so far, hopefully it wont be long before we can have another special treat!
Good Morning Year 1. As today is World book day, we would love to see you all engaging in some reading and book related activities. There is a list of resources and suggested activities to do below:
Literacy
Today we would like you to put the finishing touches to your Whale Non-fiction booklets.
You need to write a Contents Page for your book (at the front of your booklet), using the subheadings you gave your work each day.
You also need to design a front cover for your Whale book. Remember front covers need to look really colourful and inviting to make people want to read.
Maths
Today you will be comparing numbers within 50. Watch the lesson and complete the activity sheet below.
Art
Today we are going to use simple bold colours, shapes and lines, and add details from my imagination, like weather or people to help us create a Miro inspired drawing. The surrealism document will give some guidance.
Choose 2 animals, 2 objects, 3 shapes, 3 lines, 1 body part and 2 letters to include in your creation. Use the picture generator to help.

We enjoyed planting different seeds this afternoon including broccoli, courgette, leeks and turnip. We can keep an eye on them in our classroom until the weather gets warmer. Fingers crossed we can transfer the plants into our raised beds and look forward to lots of lovely vegetables!

We took advantage of the beautiful weather on Friday to take part in our wellbeing walk. In Science, we have been learning about the weather so we enjoyed hunting for signs of spring using binoculars. We know how keeping active can help us to feel good inside and out, so we enjoyed walking/running to different spots around our school grounds!
