Pandas

Pandas – Year 1
The Year 1 teacher is Miss Bowers, supported by our Learning Support Assistants.

In Year 1, children continue their journey with the Little Wandle phonics scheme, building on the foundations from Reception. Guided by our vision “Believe and Achieve Together” and our rules “Ready, Respectful and Safe,” we support children as they grow in confidence, independence and curiosity across all areas of learning.

Children are expected to read regularly at home, practise number bonds and early times tables, and complete weekly homework to apply their skills. We value close links with parents and welcome open communication between home and school.

What your child needs each day:

  • A named drinks bottle

  • A PE kit (plain T-shirt, shorts, plimsolls in a PE bag)

  • A book bag with reading record and books

  • Weather-appropriate clothing

Please make sure all items are clearly named.
