Class Teacher- Miss Molloy
Classroom Assistant- Mrs Stanley
Welcome to our new class page for 2019-2020. Here you will be able to see any important upcoming dates, homework for your child and have a look at what we get up to in the classroom.
Dear Year 1 Parents,
We will be setting home learning tasks daily as well as some projects and practical activities for your child to complete at home. Children may find it challenging to complete work when surrounded by their toys, books and games so it is important that their activities are done in short bursts.
