Year 1

Year1 2024-25

Welcome to Year 1 at Northbrook Primary Academy

In Year 1, we move from the Early Learning Goals to the National curriculum. We will be continuing to grow into independent and inquisitive learners, building on our prior learning through continuous provision and hands on, practical activities. We use White Rose Hub for Maths and use different fiction and non-fiction texts for our English units. We also enjoy foundation subjects where we can be creative and thoughtful, as well as encourage the children to explore the world around them.

We learn in a fun and stimulating environment that challenges pupils thinking and allows them to grow as individuals. The children are given many exciting and memorable opportunities to enhance their learning. We love to learn in a practical way and we enhance the learning by using our amazing outdoor areas.

In Year 1 we work as a team to build resilience and we learn to believe in ourselves. Our class motto is “If you believe, you can achieve”. Our school values of happiness, empathy, aspiration, respect and teamwork are at the heart of everything we do

We look forward to seeing all your hard work this year!
