About Us

The children in our 2011  class came from three different classes from the previous year. This means that we all have the opportunity to make lots of new friends. Many of the activities we do in the classroom are directed at helping the children learn to recognise faces and names.


This year is designed to encourage the children to become independent and take responsibility for their learning.


During the week, classes get together for an activity with their Buddy class. Our Big Buddy class is Mr. Thompson's Year 5 and 6 class. Each child has a Big Buddy allocated to her/him for the year. The children become friends both inside the classroom and outside the classroom.
Sometimes we plan activities in which the older children are able to help the younger children, e.g. they listen while their Little Buddy practises their reading. Sometimes the activity is having fun,  e.g. running obstacle races together.The children in our school are responsible for tidying up the school environment once a term.  We are encouraging our children to keep the playground and gardens tidy and attractive.This is a Buddy class activity. The childre get a real buzz out of making a difference to the appearance of our school.
