welcome |
We would like to welcome both you and your child to Year One.
We are looking forward to working with you to ensure that your child achieves their very best academically, spiritually whilst also developing their wider gifts and God given talents.
If you have any concerns or questions regarding your child, please feel free to see me at the end of the day. If I am not available, or if that is not convenient for you, then we can arrange an appointment for another time. You can also refer to the following resources that were handed out during the Meet the Teacher in September, Year One Handbook
and Meet the Teacher Presentation.

If one dream should fall and break into a thousand pieces… never be afraid to pick one of those pieces up and begin again. That’s the beauty of being alive… We can always start all over again. Enjoy God’s amazing opportunities bestowed on us. Have faith in Him always. |

YEAR 1 GALLERYWe look to Jesus as our guide in praying and learning. Here you will see some of the wonderful experiences we have shared together in Year 1. |
Year One had a very special visitor at the end of their English unit, the Big Bad Wolf came to answer lots of questions that all of the children had! Year One have been learning about praying in different ways. We have been learning to pray through listening to music and meditation.
Year One had a very special Prayer and Liturgy Service. We invited parents to join us to celebrate Mary Our Mother during the month of October.
Year One had a very special Prayer and Liturgy Service. We invited parents to join us to celebrate Peace as part of Advent. |
Year One looked at seasonal changes in Science. During our lessons we decorated trees to represent each season.
Sister Eleanor visited Year One to teach us about Catholic Social Teachings.
During Geography Awareness Week, Year One used recycled cardboard to create God's creation. As part of the Advent celebrations, Year One made Advent Wreaths and learned about what each candle meant (Hope, Love, Joy, Peace and Christ). |
