Year 1 Teaching Team
Miss Walker - Class Teacher Mrs Hopkins - TA Mrs Green (TA) Mrs Joy (TA)
Welcome to Year one
I would like to introduce myself. I am Miss Walker, and I will be your child’s class teacher for this year. Mrs Hopkins, Mrs Green, and Mrs Joy will also be working alongside myself and the children. If you have any problems throughout the year, please speak to one of us. You can speak to us on the phone or speak to the office to make an appointment.
We hope you find this information below useful:
Reading books:
Your children will need to bring their reading folder in every day with both their books and their reading record, as they will be called to read throughout the day. Please hear your child read at home every day and sign the reading record, so we know to change your child’s book. We will try to change books once a week, but the day may vary. During the Autumn term, we will be changing them every 2 weeks to help grow their fluency and confidence in reading. This is another reason why it is important to have their reading folder every day.
Homework
Homework will not be sent home until November.
This will be sent home on a Friday to be returned once complete, be returned no later than the next Friday. All children will have an orange homework book. Please take care of these books and encourage your children to look after them. Please complete homework in pencil, and with any colouring to be done in colouring pencil.
P.E
Children need to wear their St Anne’s school P.E kits on a Tuesday and a Wednesday. P.E kit should be plain navy-blue bottoms, St Anne’s branded P.E t-shirt and St Annes’ P.E hoodie. We do try to do as much outside as possible, so when the weather is cold, please do not send your child in shorts. Please put children’s NAMES on their clothing.
Uniform
Please NAME your child’s uniform. If your child loses something, it is very difficult to find, when there is no name on it. We do encourage the children to put their jumpers and cardigans in their draw and to also take responsibility for their property such as bags, jumpers and cardigans.
We look forward to getting to know your child and also to having a happy, successful and fun year!
