A huge thank you to all the wonderful parents who joined Year 1 Ash for our Christmas Sing-Along! 🎄✨ Your support means the world, and we hope you’re as proud of the children as we are. They sang their hearts out and truly made it magical! ❤️

This morning, our little tour guides took us on a whistle-stop journey through the capital, sharing amazing facts about famous landmarks like Big Ben, Buckingham Palace, and the Tower Bridge. What a brilliant way to bring learning to life! 🌟

Year 1 Elm had so much fun in DT making windmills. Take a look at their amazing creations!

Year 1 Elm loved learning all about Children in Need today. They also had lots of fun designing a new scarf for Pudsey Bear!

In Year 1 Ash this week, we have been busy celebrating Diwali. We carefully planned and created Diya lamps using salt dough, learned the story of Rama and Sita, and even taste-tested samosas. Ask us questions about what we’ve been up to this week!

Year 1 Ash won the attendance clash last week, which means we got the chance to go to the vending machine! Our special treat for the day is a mini disco - a great way to finish off the week in Ash Class.

Year 1 Elm have really impressed us with their artwork. We have been looking at the artist Bridget Riley and taking inspiration from her work to create our own art pieces. We learnt about different line techniques such as horizontal, vertical, diagonal and wavy. We put our work together, so take a look at our amazing masterpiece!
