CLASS INFO

We are a class of 27 a mix of delightful year 1 and year 2 children who enjoy working and playing in our light airy classroom. We are taught by Mrs Pickard from Monday to Thursday and Mrs Robinson on a Friday. Mrs Duffin is our lovely teaching assistant.
In Year 1 and 2 we are building on the foundations we learnt in the Foundation Stage. We gain confidence and fluency in reading, are amazed by our ever-improving writing and sparkle as our Maths skills and fluency develop. We still do lots of our learning through play and have fun.
We learn practically where ever we can enjoy our beautiful school grounds and surroundings which provides opportunities for outdoor learning in Geography, History and Art.
