Year 1 - Koalas
Welcome to Koala Class
Welcome to Koala Class! We are delighted to have you and your child with us and are looking forward to a happy, exciting and memorable year together.
Our class teacher is Katie, who will be teaching the Koala class throughout the week. Miriam and Charlotte will be working with us as LSAs in the mornings.
We love working closely with our children, families and the local community to provide lots of exciting and meaningful learning opportunities throughout the year.
Learning in Year 1
In Year 1, our curriculum is enriching, meaningful and active, allowing our children to become fully immersed in their learning. The children will take part in a range of well-planned and carefully sequenced lessons designed to engage and inspire them.
Throughout the year, we will provide a variety of exciting in-school enrichment opportunities and will also be planning a special trip for the summer term.
Our topics for the year are:
Term 1: Marvellous Monarchy
Term 2: Let’s celebrate
Term 3: Land before time
Term 4: G’day mate
Term 5: Great women who changed the world
Term 6: Ever changing Earth
PE
Monday is our PE day. Please make sure your child comes to school wearing their PE kit on Mondays.

We will visit the library on Tuesdays, giving the children the opportunity to choose a book to take home and enjoy with their families.
