Year 1

Dear Families,

We hope that you had a wonderful Easter and managed to get some well earned rest and celebration! It was one of the wettest Easter holidays that we can remember, as we enter the Summer Term, let's hope for some sunshine!

Thank you to all those families that are prioritising reading, we have been so impressed with all the children and the fantastic reading that they have been doing in school.

Throughout the summer all of our Year One children will have the opportunity to plan and lead their own prayer reflection, we will let you know when your child will have a turn.

Our PE days remain the same, Tuesday and Thursday. Please remember water bottles and reading books each day.

Thank you,

Mrs Sykes and Mrs Warman

Dear Year One Families,

A great big welcome to you all from the Year One team! We are really looking forward to getting to know the children and their families. If you have any questions, please don't hesitate in speaking to us!

Just a few things to get you started in Year 1.

Mrs Sykes will be teaching in class on Monday, Tuesday and Wednesday. Mrs Warman will be in class teaching on Thursday and Friday. We have some fantastic teaching assistants, Mrs Redpath (Monday - Friday) and Mrs Smith (Monday and Wednesday). The children will be pleased to know that Mrs Cawthorne will be covering the class when we have our PPA time.

PE is on Tuesday and Thursday. Children need to come to school in their PE uniform on Tuesday and Thursday. Full school uniform needs to be worn on Monday, Wednesday and Friday. Here is a link to the uniform policy... Uniform | St Patrick's Catholic Primary School (stpatricks-wilts.co.uk)

Children need to bring their water bottle and reading book into class each morning. Their water bottle is in the classroom and so always available if they need a drink. They will keep coats and lunch boxes in their locker for the day.

We are really looking forward to getting to know you all over the coming weeks.

Thank you,

Mrs Sykes and Mrs Warman
