Year 1

Published on 9th July

Year 1 had a fantastic active morning at our 2021 KS1 Sports Day.
The children took part in a carousel of activities including throwing, beanbag relay, team games, running, football dribble and the traditional sack race!
We are lucky to have the space to have been able to spread out enough to compete at a safe social distance with the Reception and Year 2 bubbles and thanks to some fortunate breaks in the weather we enjoyed a whole lovely morning on our beautiful school field. The children were very supportive of each other, very resilient and showed great sportsmanship.

To celebrate the end of our Best of British topic, year 1 travelled back in time to the realm of lords, ladies and medieval knights. Dressed for the occasion, the children spent the morning preparing for a banquet. They made “trenchers” (medieval bread used as plates) ready to cook on the fire later, created pennants to carry to the feast, and practised their fighting and jousting skills.

Year 1 had a great time in the science lab today setting up an investigation into what plants need to grow. We are growing cress in different conditions - no water, no soil, no light and then a control pot with all things - soil, water and light.

To finish off our topic “Around the World in 80 days” we learnt about Amelia Earhart’s achievements and her attempt to fly around the world.

The children in Year 1 made this lovely piece of collaborative art. Each child coloured and decorated their own puzzle piece and then they joined them up to show how they are all back together.

Year 2 have been learning about Northern Ireland and they made their own giants causeway and then acted out the legend of Finn McCool/modern days tourists with the Happy Land people.

Year 1 spent the afternoon visiting the rest of the school and singing beautiful Christmas Carols - what a lovely treat and made everyone feel very festive.
