Year 1 begins the children's journey into Key Stage One, so it's a very important year! We do lots of hands on learning through our inspiring and creative curriculum. We look forward to sharing our new and exciting news with you about all the fantastic things that happen in our Year 1 class.

Learning to read is one of the most important things your child will learn at Etruscan Primary. This is implemented through effective teaching of our RWI phonics scheme to help our children in year 1 to develop the vital skills they need to become fluent and confident readers.

Your child will be sent home everyday with a reading book targeted at their reading age and a reading diary, therefore it is important for you to listen to your child read their reading book every night and sign their reading diary.

2023-2024- Celebrating STEM Week in Year 1 

Year 1 had lots of fun during STEM week. The aim of the week was to  introduce the children to the fundamentals of STEM and inspire our children with STEM careers,   while working together to solve fun challenges and engage in exciting and practical learning. The theme of our STEM week was 'Space'. Year 1 read the book 'Man on the moon' and had fun designing and making space helmets for the astronauts.  Year 1 had fun exploring different materials and used technical skills to create a unique and suitable space helmet. Furthermore, Year 1 engaged in a fun science experiment to answer the question ' How far can my space rocket travel?'

Children created their very own space rockets and used straw and air to measure how far their space rocket can fly. They even took part in competitions to see whose space rocket would travel the furthest.
