HAPPY (ALMOST) SUMMER HOLIDAYS

17th July 2025Abigale Crawford

Hello Future Year 1 Superstars! 

I just wanted to send you a big smile and a warm wave as you head off for your summer holidays! You have worked so hard in Reception, and now it’s time to rest, play, and enjoy all the sunshine, ice cream, and fun adventures summer brings.

I’m so excited to be your teacher in Year 1 and can’t wait to learn, laugh, and explore with you in August! We’re going to have a brilliant time together.

Have lots of fun, stay safe, and don’t forget to smile every day. I’ll be counting down the days until we’re in our new classroom together!

See you soon!

Love,
Mrs. Crawford & Miss. Myers

Deaf Awareness

17th July 2025Abigale Crawford

As part of our Day 2 for Transition, we explored BSL and Deaf Awareness. To inspire us, we watched Mr. Chandler’s BBC retelling of the story “The Enormous Turnip”. This story was accompanied by an orchestra so in 1C we created our own! The children learned he song and tried out different types of instruments.

The children then split into mini-crews to sequence pictures from the story. They worked very well as a team!

We then were visited by Mrs. Anderson from the Deaf School and she talked us through her experience of being Deaf. She also gave us some very helpful pointers on how to successfully communicate with hearing impaired people and we learned some BSL.

When I grow up….

17th July 2025Abigale Crawford

As part of transition day, our guiding question for the day was “What will you be when you grow up?” In the morning we were visited by some of my friends who all had different kinds of jobs. We met Coach Owen, who is a business owner and PE coach. We met Nurse Alice who is a critical care nurse at DRI. We had some information videos from Chloe who is a food product developer. Last but most certainly not least, we met Rev. Adam and Rev. Tony who talked us through their job at the Church.

We then had a big conversation about what jobs we would like to do when we grow up and all I can say, we will not be without ICE CREAM with the amount of vans that will be driving around. An interesting mix of teachers, a boxer, a fossil hunter and so many interesting choices!
