Welcome to Year 1

Welcome Back!

We hope you enjoyed the summer holidya's and had a chance to enjoy the nice weather. It sounds as though the children have had a lovely time and they seem very happy to be back with their friends.

Our topic this half term is the seaside. Your child will soon be coming home with a homework menu and a science vocabulary list. If you have any questions or queries, please email school and your emails will be forwarded onto us. We will reply to your emails as soon as we can.

Thank you for your continued support,
