Year 1
Welcome to Year 1
Meet the Teacher
Safer Internet Day February 2025
We read the book “Digiduck’s Decision”.
It was a story about how Digiduck saw an unkind picture of his friend while playing an online game and had to decide what to do. We talked about what Digiduck should do and how we could help him make the right choice.
Year 1 wrote an email to him to help Digiduck make his decision.
How we keep safe online
We created posters to tell everyone how to be safe online. The focus for Safer Internet Day this year was "Too good to be true."
We talked about scams and how they try to trick us.
Our first class assembly in year 1!
We loved making our muffins for DT and they were DELICIOUS!
We work hard in our maths lessons, looking at place value
We went on a geography field trip we looked at all the different types of houses in Broad Street.
PE
In our PE lessons this term, we have been learning new skills in gymnastics. We have learnt how to roll in different ways, a forward roll, a pencil roll, and a teddy bear roll. We have tried hard to keep our balance when on the mat or on the benches. Once we mastered these skills, we then linked different skills together to perform a sequence which we performed in front of out classmates. The final lesson involved using all the big apparatus and we played shipwrecks. Year 1 had to carry a piece of treasure all the way around the course without dropping it or stepping on to the floor. It was a great afternoon!

Science:
Everyday Materials
Year 1 have explored the classroom and outside area to find how different materials have been used. We learnt about the difference between an object and the material it is made from.
We though about the properties of the materials and why we used them. We helped Bronwyn
(class toy) find a suitable material for a rain hat by testing different materials.
We were thrilled to share all that we had learned in our RE topic of Resurrection with our parents.
Fr. Giovanni came to celebrate Mass with us all
