Welcome to Year 1

Cyprus class home learning 19/12/25

Good afternoon,
What a wonderful week it has been at St Cyprian’s! We’ve enjoyed so many festive moments together — from the Year 2 and EYFS Nativities to dancing along with Christmas songs, taking part in Christmas activities, and having lots of fun at our Christmas party.
Attached, you’ll find the home learning for the Christmas holidays. You may notice it looks a little different this time — I’ve replaced the usual English task with an engaging and exciting project linked to our new science topic for after half term.
We hope the children really enjoy this project, and we can’t wait to see their creations during the first week back after the holidays.
Wishing you all a very happy Christmas, and thank you sincerely for your support throughout the first term.
Warm regards,
Miss Hooker x

Good afternoon,

This week in English we have been using the personal pronoun ‘I’ to write our very own traditional tale! In maths, we have continued to recap the number bonds within 10 using concrete resources such as ten frames and counters.

Please encourage your child to practise our song ‘Rudolph the Red Nosed Reindeer’ over the weekend – it would be much appreciated! 🙂
