We had an exciting week teaching and learning in Year 1 class. All your children have settled in well. We had focused learning during Carpet sessions as well as adult focused small group sessions. We are working using the National Curriculum within an Early Years free flow routine.

A small request to all parents.

Please can all your child’s uniform and all belongings be clearly labelled with their name.
