Autumn 2023

Welcome back to school for those pupils in Year 1 and welcome to the new pupils that are joining us this year in Reception! 

We have a fun and busy first half term planned! Our first topic of the school year is: The seaside.

Please follow the links below to our half term letter and curriculum plan:

We have had a great time meeting our new friends in Class 1!

We have been thinking about holidays that we have had at the seaside. We thought about what we would find at the seaside and what people like to do there. The children were challenged to use a box of resources to make their own seaside. 

We had a great first PE lesson with our sports coach Dan! We played lots of great games with our friends. 

In our history lessons we have been thinking about visiting the seaside one hundred years ago. We thought about why people would visit and what they would do to have fun. We learnt about bathing machines and tried on some Victorian swimming costumes! We built our own bathing machine in class and went 'swimming'!

We learnt that people one hundred years ago loved to watch puppet shows. We saw some Punch and Judy puppets and then made our own puppet show. 

Please check back to see what we are learning!
