Hello and welcome to the class 4 page! We are called the Owls and we are year 1.  

My name is Miss Church and I am Class 4’s teacher. This year, we aim to learn a lot and we will try to have lots of fun doing it! Our learning this year will include…

We will begin the term with a focus on a whole class story and we will be doing lots of work on cooperation, friendship, kindness and how we can work together as a team. 

Our exciting topics this year are… 

Autumn 1 – History of Nottingham 

Autumn 2 – Local Geography - Nottingham 

Spring 1 –Toys – Past and Present  

Spring 2 – UK Countries, Capitals and Seas  

Summer 1 – The Great Fire of London 

Summer 2 – Hot and Cold Places  

PE days will be Monday and Wednesday so don’t forget to come in your PE kit on those days. Planners will be checked on a Monday for the previous week, so please remember to read and write in them 5 times. 

I am really looking forward to all of our new topics, WOW days and the fun we will have! The WOW days include, being outlaws, toys, baking and food tasting, visits to Arnold and the library. 

I like to have a colourful and bright classroom. I like having lots of fun but I also like everyone to show respect and kindness to each other. I enjoy being creative and love teaching art and DT. I also have a real passion for English, especially stories. I am really excited to read you lots of imaginative, interesting and funny books!  When I am not in school, you will find me spending time with my family and friends, on a walk and exploring new places or relaxing and watching Disney films with my very spoilt pug Dudley!

In Key Stage One, we have a dedicated team of amazing teaching assistants.  Mrs Baxter, Mrs Garden and Miss Spencer work in all three classes supporting with English, RWI and maths. In the afternoons, they do intervention work and Miss Spencer also leads our brilliant forest school sessions.
