Pear Tree Class - Year 1
INFORMATION FOR PARENTS
Welcome to our class page!
Year 1 Pear is taught by Miss Atkinson with support from Miss Redmond, Miss Sands and Miss Mallison.
As we are sure you can appreciate, the mornings are a very busy time and our main concern is to get the children into school safely and ready to start the day. If a message needs to be passed on to do with home-time arrangements or something that we need to know about for that day then please feel free to speak to the teacher at the door. If a longer or more confidential conversation is needed please use the class email or call the school office to arrange a phone call.
Our class email is pear@ruffordparkprimary.org.uk
PE: PE lessons will be Tuesday afternoon and Wednesday morning each week and children will need to wear PE kit to school on these days. Earrings should not be worn on these days and long hair also needs to be tied up. If for any reason earrings can not be taken out then they should be covered with tape (this needs to be brought to school or put on in the morning at home).
Coats: Children must have a coat in school each day as we play outside in all weather. This should be waterproof!
Summer Term 2024
Our topic for this term is 'African Adventure'. To bring this topic to life we will be completing an African drumming workshop on Wednesday 24th April. Our core texts for Summer 1 are 'Handa's Surprise' and 'Lila and the Secret of Rain'. We will be focusing on geography over the term, rather than history, and the children will be learning the names of different countries in Africa and comparing life in different parts of Africa.
