Welcome to Year 1

Hello everyone,

My name is Miss Peacock and I am delighted to be teaching Year 1 this year. I love travelling, reading, crafting and spending time outdoors. I am looking forward to getting to know all of the children in my class. Our classroom will be an inclusive and creative space in which everyone and everything is respected and valued. I hope you had a great holiday and are ready for a busy and exciting year ahead!

 

Welcome to Our Wonderful Year 1 Class

Your Class Teacher is Miss Peacock.

Supporting Miss Peacock in class is Miss Phillips, Miss Greenwood and Miss Diakaki.

 

 

Please have a look at our suggested reading lists for children in Year 1. These books are a range of bestselling picture books and longer texts to encourage both shared reading, individual reading and reading for pleasure.

What is Google Classroom?

Google Classroom is a collaboration tool for teachers and pupils. Mrs Shaw has created an online classroom and invited your child to the class. As well as using Google Classroom to complete tasks within school – we will create and assign homework tasks via Google Classroom too! Your child has their own username and password – they can access Google Classroom via the internet on any device.
