NEW Home Learning Booklet 6th July

Here are the new booklets prepared for you by your teachers to work on at home over the next couple of weeks. Your teachers suggest you work on these tasks 'little and often' - for about 20-30 minutes at a time to spread the tasks out.

If you have any problems please contact your class teacher.

You can work through both of these booklets.

If you need a printed copy please contact to arrange.

Message from 16th April

​

Hello Year 1 children and parents!

We hope that you have had a lovely Easter Holiday and have enjoyed some of the sunshine! We understand this is a very strange time for us all and we are missing you all. This is now officially 'week 2' of the first learning pack with the second pack launching on Monday 20th April.  We hope you have managed to have a look at some of the areas in small bursts, with a balance of online links, paper copies and practical activities! Ultimately we want happiness, fun, play and well-being at the forefront because we know that everyone is in a juggling act at the moment!  We understand that our children are very young and you may have a number of children at home to care for.

We would love to read your messages and see photos of things you are doing at home. We will also be able to answer any queries about work via the email addresses below, when we are working from home. In addition to the class email, we have the enquiries email for any general queries that you might have while the school is closed: enquiries@wrpschool.org.

We definitely look forward to seeing you all again,

The Year One Team :-)

Mrs Parker's little girl loves to do cosmic kids yoga at home and wanted to share it with you. There are many adventures, themes and stories! You can send us photos of you doing it too - we would love to see them! Click the link below:
