An Exciting Week In Year One... ( written by the class)

We went for a trip to the allotments to look for things that were recycled. We found lots of recycled things; milk cartons, CDs, recycled fruit and vegetables to make compost, we even saw a recycled bath being used to keep the rain water in!


There was a scarecrow wearing recycled clothes. It was a lovely, beautiful sunny day.



Here we are, the Year One, Recycling Fun Band, practising for our assembly next week. We are using instruments made with recycled materials, like tin cans, pots and pans, lids and beads.



Miss Welton was very pleased with our quiet reading this week. Here are the Moon group reading so beautifully on the cushions, they didn't even know that the picture was being taken!

It has been a fun and exciting week.

A New Start For Year One (written by the children of Year 1)

It has been a fun couple of weeks starting in Year One. We have met our new class teacher, Miss Welton, again after the long summer holiday. We have learnt new class rules. We have had to decorate the classroom. Here we are doing some painting for our number work display.



We like our new outdoors play area. Here we are playing in the sand...



... and the water.



We are learning new things in our new classroom and Miss Welton makes us work very hard.



We are learning about Jewish people and their religion. Here we are with the Kippah and Torah and other things that Jewish people use.


We had fun acting out Olivers Vegetables, a book that we are reading in Literacy. The book has four characters, Oliver, Grandpa, Grandma and Mum. The setting is in Grandpas garden. Here we are acting out the story.


We have all been working very hard now that we are in Year One. We are looking forward to a relaxing weekend of playing.
