Year 1

Welcome to Year 1

 

Our Year 1 Classes

 

Welcome to Year 1!  We have three classes in our year group, two at our Oxley Park campus and one at our Shenley Wood campus.  Our class names are all famous children's authors and we enjoy finding out lots about who they are and we get to read their books during our time at Oxley Park.

 

Year 1 is the first year of our Believe journey, starting the Key Stage 1 of the national curriculum.  Here at Oxley Park, it is a fun-packed year where we still learn through play to start with.  This helps us transfer from the Dream journey we have just finished.  As the year progresses, our learning becomes more formal in preparation for our move up.  By the end of Year 1 we have the confidence to say 'I can and I will' in reading writing and using numbers, ready for Year 2.
