Welcome to Year One! We have such a fun filled year ahead of us, I cannot wait to see you all and hear all about your lovely summer holidays.
As always if you wish to discuss any aspect of the Year 1 curriculum or any issues regarding your child please contact the school office to arrange an appointment either by phone or email: office@st-austins.staffs.sch.uk.
Year One Class Saint!
In class, we have been learning about different Saints and we have had class discussions as to who our class Saint should be! We have chosen ...
Spellings!
I am sharing the spelling list for Year One. These are words which the children should be able to confidently read and spell by the end of the year. We will be practicing these in class but please continue this at home as well!
Forest School!
I am so pleased that we are launching our very own Forest School this year! Forest School is outdoor education that focuses on developing and encouraging your child in all aspects of their growth and skills. It is a hands-on learning approach where children will be able to use tools, build shelters and play in the outdoor environment.
Year One will have Forest School sessions weekly. Please ensure that your child brings their Forest School kit in each week as we will be outside in all weathers (except high winds and thunder storms).
For more information, please see the Forest School page below.
