# Year 1

## Welcome to Year 1

Thank you for visiting our Year 1 webpage.

In Year 1, we make the exciting transition from our Early Years Foundation Stage (Reception) as the children continue their journey through our school.  We love to discover how each of our children are individuals and unique and celebrate this with them.

In Year 1, we provide opportunities for children to embrace learning, whilst preparing them to evolve into the next stage of their journey.   Throughout the year, we will continue to build on their experiences in Reception and develop the children's resilience, independence and most importantly happiness at school.

Our Year 1 Team includes Mrs Lord, Mrs Varney, Mrs Brooks, Mrs Smith, Mrs Plummer and Mrs Choudry.
