Welcome to Class 1

 

We hope you have had a restful and enjoyable summer and we are looking forward to welcoming you and your child into Class 1.

Year 1 is the first year of the National Curriculum, as such there is a more structured environment where children are encouraged to further develop their independence and to take ownership of their learning. 

We aim to grow lively and enquiring minds believing children should always find learning worthwhile and challenging. To do this we scaffold, model and nurture children through their learning so that they can achieve at their own pace and to their best ability. Underpinning all of this is St Anne's Vision 'Do everything in love' which are the guiding principles of how all members of the St Anne's community should learn, play and be together in line with the schools values and ethos. 

We look forward to sharing your child's learning journey with you and seeing them shine in their own individual ways!

PE Day - Monday

Please can your child come to school in their PE kit, they will stay in this all day. Therefore, no school uniform is required for that day.

 

We teach E-safety at school and would like to share some materials that you and your child can access as guidance.
