Welcome to Seedling Class - Year 1 and Year 2

Welcome to Seedlings class.  My name is Mrs King, and I am the class teacher for our Year 1 and 2 children.  We are lucky to have two Teaching Assistants, Mrs De'Ath, and Mrs Jorgenson-Lian (who we all call Mrs Carol!) 

In Seedlings we promote a Growth Mindset to develop positive attitudes towards learning and encourage the children to keep trying even when they find something difficult. The children have been inspired by our Growth Mindset display in the classroom.

This term our topic is called Muck, Mess and Mixtures.  We will be learning about different materials, and will be exploring art techniques. We will be sharing 'George's Marvellous Medicine', by Roald Dahl,  as a class, and linking creative writing to our topic too.

 Our PE days are  still on Tuesday and Thursday, please ensure your child wears their PE kit into school on those days.

Homework will be set on Thursday, just click on the link below. This is due in on Monday.

If you would like to contact me please use the contact form below, and I will get back to you as soon as possible.
