Weekly Update 24.10.25

The final week of the first half term has come to an end and it has flown by!
This week in English the children finished writing their diary entries as Samuel Pepys and as always I was so impressed with the quality of the written work.
In maths Year 1 have continued learning about addition by finding number bonds to 7, 8 and 9. Year 2 have begun to use their knowledge of their number bonds to 10 to solve other sums.
In science we enjoyed looking for signs of autumn by going on an autumnal walk around the school grounds.
The children also enjoyed an afternoon of art on Monday; we explored acrylic paint and the children created their own painting inspired by their interests.
As mentioned at parents' evening, Year 1 homework will start being set after the October holiday. The homework will be sent home on a Friday and will need to be completed and returned to school on the following Thursday.
All the Year 1 children have done so well in transitioning from reception to year one. This is one of the most difficult transitions in school and the children all seem well settled with the Key Stage One expectations and routines.
I hope you and your children enjoy the October half term holidays and I will see you again on Monday 3rd November!
