An Autumn Term to Remember

Friday 19 December 2025

We’ve reached the end of the Autumn term and what an amazing 15 weeks it’s been! We’ve already come such a long way. It’s been a real pleasure getting to know the children and seeing how much progress they’ve made in such a short space of time.

Our phonics journey has been particularly exciting, with the children embracing their learning enthusiastically and growing in confidence each day. We are developing as skilled transcribers and flexible mathematicians, showing increasing independence and resilience in our learning.

This term, we’ve been busy wearing many different hats – geographers, artists, gymnasts, angels and shepherds. We’ve enjoyed reading about Flat Stanley, Hermelin, Bernard, Katie and Dasher – stories that have inspired curiosity and imagination. Alongside our learning, friendships have continued to grow stronger (even if a few jumpers have gone missing along the way!).

Thank you to all parents and carers for your ongoing support at home. It really does make a huge difference and your hard work is greatly appreciated.

We’re very much looking forward to the Spring term and all the excitement and learning that lies ahead.

Help at home by enjoying a well-earned rest (and daily reading, of course).

Merry Christmas to those who celebrate and Happy New Year to everyone. We look forward to welcoming you back soon.

Mr Nash and the Year 1 team
