Trotts Hill Primary School and Nursery
Welcome to Year 1
The class teacher is Mrs Flack and the teaching assistant is Mrs Masterson
In Year 1 lessons are balanced between child-initiated learning, as well as more formal lessons. A good transition from Reception into Year 1 is paramount and we ensure that all children gradually and successfully adapt to the new expectations.
The children will be learning about lots of exciting things, including:
Queen Elizabeth I and II
Animals and Humans
Old and New Toys
Seasons
Puppet making
Learning is great fun in Year 1!
Thursday afternoon lessons
