Welcome to Year 1's Class Page 

What have we been up to so far??

For our Design Technology project year 1 made our very own puppets. We designed them, cut them out of material and stapled them together. We also decided that because it was so close to Easter we would make our puppets easter themed. The children really enjoyed making an Easter bunny or Easter chick puppet.                                                                                                                                                                                                            

In year 1 we have been learning about the life cycle of frogs. We are lucky enough to have our own pond on our school grounds so we collected some frog spawn from our pond and put them in a tank in our classroom so we could watch them develop into tadpole's in real time. 

The children enjoy coming into class in the mornings and checking on our class pets.  

Christmas party day!!!!!

The children then enjoyed a little tea party with their class mates where they made their own Christmas themed place mats and wore their party hats they had made themselves during the week. 

After we went for a disco and dance in the hall with our year 2 friends. 

The children had the best  time winning prizes for the best dancer! 

To bring the fun filled day to an end we had a surprise visit from a super special someone and his elf...…..

During our final weeks of term Year 1 and 2 joined together for our KS1 nativity play.

The children did an amazing job as alot of you parents saw.  With their brilliant acting, amazing singing and our fantastic narrators the play was a major success. 

Well done Year 1 and 2 you made everyone super proud x

Wednesday 6th of December.....BIG NEWS!!!

Today was St Augustine's big Christmas tree switch on! 

Each child in our  school was given a Christmas bauble to place on our school tree which they all did at some point throughout the day.

Year 1 had lots of fun adding their own little baubles too the tree, even if we could only reach the bottom :)

We had a special visit from a charity called Wood street mission. 

They very generously donated books to our school for the children to choose and take home for free. The children where so happy to be able to take books home to read to their grownups!

You may have seen your little one come home with a red bag full of story books. 

Thank you Wood street mission for your kind gesture.

During this half term Year 1 and Year 2 took a trip to the cinema to watch Epic Tails. 

The children really enjoyed our day out as we took the tram to the cinema which was a first for some of the children. 

It was really nice for the  children to experience a day at the cinema with all there class mates. 

In our science lessons we have been learning all about the seasons and how things around us change during the different seasons. We have mainly focused on Autumn and the changes we could see which gave us clues to let us no Autumn had arrived. The children went on a little walk around the school yard to document what we could see. 

Last week it was Friendship day at St Augustine's so we had some fun doing some nice activities with our friends in class. We spoke about what makes a good friend and what we could do to be  better friends. The children had lots of fun telling the class what makes there friends so special to them. 

On Friday the15th of September it was take over day in our school. 

All the children had the opportunity to become teachers for the day and teach the children in their class various lessons.
