Explorers Class - Year 1

Welcome to Explorer Class!

Was Guy Fawkes a hero or a villain?

In term 2 we will learn about Guy Fawkes as part of our celebrations topic.  We will look at who ruled England and  Introduce the concept of monarchy and parliament.  We will think about what is similar and what is different to today.  The children will be Introduced to the idea of different religious beliefs.  They will begin to understand the idea that events in the past shape our life today.

Why do we celebrate special times?

In RE this term, we will be considering the importance and value of celebration and remembrance in the children's own lives.

They will think about how and why celebrations are important in religion. They will also learn about the Jewish festival -  Rosh Hashanah and Hanukkah.

PE

PE is on Tuesdays and Thursdays. We will be doing the majority of our PE lessons outside so please make sure your child has appropriate clothes and trainers that they can do up by themselves. Please can you also make sure all PE kit is labelled with names, so we can return mislaid PE kit. Thank you.
