Welcome To Class 1
Welcome to our Class 1 page. This year, Class 1 mainly includes EYFS and Year 1 children. Our teacher is Miss Dent and we are supported by Miss Jenkins.
Climbing Wall 22-9-23
We had an amazing time on the climbing wall. Coming down was as much fun as going up!
Our Fence Is Looking Very Smart!
We would all like to say an enormous thank you to everyone involved in painting the fence around the Class 1 outside area. It looks amazing!
Thank you to Mrs Clark for organising this and to Mr Walters for overseeing things on the day (and painting too!). We are very grateful to the volunteers from Nationwide who came for the day to get the job done. Thank you everyone!
Go Outdoors! 21-9-23
The Reception children enjoyed hunting for delicious blackberries today. They also were very creative, making pictures from natural objects.
Let's Rock! September 23
We had so much fun creating fitness videos and songs with Rocktopus. You can watch them on the Rocktopus website when you receive your special code.
World Book Day March 2023
We LOVE books! It was so hard to choose just one for World Book Day. We had a lot of fun acting out one of our favourites. Can you guess which book it is?
Learning About Our Church (January 2023)
On Tuesday, we went to Christ Church in Broad Town. Mr and Mrs Manley told us about the different parts of the church and talked about some of the objects we saw there. We learned so much and we also got to ring the bell! Thank you to Mr and Mrs Manley and also to Mrs Wood for coming with us.
Woodhill Park Farm October 2022
In October, the Gantlett family very kindly let us visit their farm. It is an organic farm and the cows wear special collars which open gates and activate the robotic milking machines. This means that the cows can choose when to come in and be milked. It was amazing to watch. They are very happy cows!
Giving To Others - Christmas 2022
Thank you for all of your kind donations for our hamper. I delivered it to Oak and Furrows during the holidays. They were very grateful as they were just running out of fat balls for the birds!
Theatre Trip Dcember 2022
We had a fabulous time at The Ho Ho Ho Mrs Christmas Show at the Swindon Arts Theatre. It made us all feel very Christmassy!
An Unusual Visitor December 2022
We were very lucky to share our playtime with this beautiful buzzard. We often see them flying above our school but this was the first time we could observe one so close to us. It made us all go WOW!

PE With Kingsbury Green Academy
On 1st March, students from Kingsbury Green Academy came to teach us PE. We worked on agility and balance. It was hard work but a lot of fun. The Kingsbury Green students were brilliant!
Internet Safety
We have been learning about staying safe online. We found these short videos helpful:
EYFS:
· Find the Jessie & Friends cartoons at: www.thinkuknow.co.uk/parents/jessie-and-friends-videos/
· Watch Episode 1: Watching Videos with your child.
· Use open questions to chat about the cartoon. For example: What did you think about the cartoon? Which were your favourite parts? How did Jessie feel when she watched ‘The Funny Tummy’ video? How did she feel when she watched ‘The Happy Croccy’ video? How did her feelings change? How did she get help to feel better?
· Finish by having fun singing along together at the end!
Year 1 and 2:
· Find the Jessie & Friends cartoons at www.thinkuknow.co.uk/parents/jessie-and-friends-videos/
· Watch Episode 2: Sharing Pictures with your child.
· Use questions to chat about the cartoon. For example: How did lots of people end up seeing the pictures? What made Mo feel sad? How did the friends get help when they needed it? What did Miss Humphrey say she would do to help?
· Finish by watching the song again and having a sing-along!
Note: If your child wants to watch Episode 1 too, do watch it with them! It’s aimed at younger children, but it’s still fun to watch.
