Welcome to Willow

We are a small, yet perfectly formed, class of Year 1 and 2 children taught by Mrs Pallant, Mrs Stead and Mrs Gothard. We follow an engaging curriculum aiming to not only teach skills and knowledge but to equip the children with the learning behaviours and increased independence needed for school and beyond.  

PE 

Our PE days are Monday and Wednesday. On PE days, the children come to school in their PE kits, which is a white top, blue or black jogging bottoms or shorts, a blue or black sweatshirt and trainers. Long hair should be tied up and earrings should be covered or taken out. 

Class Dojo

Class Dojo is the platform we use to share information regarding your child. We keep parents and carers updated regularly posting wow moments that the children share with us in class. 
Class Dojo can be downloaded as a free app onto any iphone or android phone. 
The class teacher will send you a code using the given email address or mobile phone number for you to connect to your child's account. Class story will be used for any full class information or home learning activities the class teacher may set. 
You will only be able to see your own child's portfolio of work and dojo points. 
This is also used to message your child's class teacher. 
 

Reading
​Children are encouraged to read at home daily as well as in the classroom. Year 1 and 2 children will be encouraged to take ownership of changing their book when needed. 

Autumn Topic: Movers and Shakers 

This project teaches children about historically significant people who have had a major impact on the world. They will learn to use timelines, stories and historical sources to find out about the people featured and use historical models to explore their significance.
