Year 1 Weekly blog 12.9.25 - Let the beauty of nature remind you of the goodness of God.

"God saw all that He had made, and it was GOOD." Genesis 1:31

Our week began in such a special way, with a walk holding our Year 6 friends hands, ready to celebrate Our Lady’s birthday. The children shared such happy conversations with each other and our Year 6 friends really wanted to find out all about their Year 1 buddy, it was such a joy to listen to the caring conversations. In church all of our children sat so prayerfully, singing to hymns they remembered and joining their hands respectfully.

We welcomed a special visitor from CAFOD on Monday! She helped us become learned and wise towards our world and the greater needs of others! Our Year 1’s were incredibly knowledgeable and caring, and absolutely blew our special visitor away with the wisdom of their words.


Magic moments of learning

We have been so busy with learning! Within RE and our liturgy’s we have been focused on CREATION - the beautiful world that God has made. We have a class of caring children who want to look after God’s beautiful world. The children enjoyed heading outside to see, smell, hear and feel God’s creation as we went on a scavenger hunt in our school grounds.

Letter join lessons have started and have been a real hit! ON Tuesday afternoon the Children enjoyed their first history lesson from Mrs Marshall! The children loved seeing the timeline grow in the classroom!


Delving deeper with our learning…

What big animal movements can you remember to help your body get ready for writing? My brain is thinking back to the crab movement…

What is your favourite thing that God made and why?

Let’s celebrate

This week our Virtue Star for being such a considered member of our classroom is Rupert! Our Star learner this week is a Focused learner which has been awarded to Lily for her continuous focus, concentration and how she always put her everything into learning.


Reminders

  • PE days are Monday (Outdoor) and Thursday (Indoor). No jewellery is to be worn on either of these days.

  • On Tuesday your child will come home with their homework book. Part of their homework will be to enjoy backing their book so that it is special to them, by sharing a little bit of their personality, what is special to them or what they like! Please remember that homework books must then be returned by the following Monday. Thank you!

We hope you have a wonderful weekend.!

God Bless
