Year 1
Welcome to Year 1
Welcome to Year 1! We hope you had a lovely summer.
This term, our whole school topic is "A Tale to Tell ..." and we have lots of exciting things planned. In history, we will be finding out about the Great Fire of London and in geography, we'll learn about four countries of the United Kingdom. We'll be finding out about animals including humans in science and exploring the work of Ben Nicholson in art. We're going to build mechanisms in DT and explore wheels and axles.
We've got lots of exciting things to look forward to! We'll post information on Dojo regularly but if you have any questions, please let us know.
