The school day - Key Stage 1

8.45am - 9am

A soft start to the day - we have a fifteen minute window for the children to make their way into school. This allows a member of staff to greet them on the door personally, and it helps the children to settle in for a day of learning and fun! In the classroom there are opportunties for children to practise their key skills such as their weekly spellings.

9am - 9:30am

We start the school day with Phonics in EYFS and for the Year 1 children in Oaks (KS1).

9:30 - 10.15am

After Phonics it's either Maths or English learning.

10.15am - 10.30am

This is when we stop for an assembly. This may be in our classroom or in the hall. On Wednesdays we have a special assembly where we share 'Great News' and give out certificates for all the fanatastic learning that has happened!

10:30 - 10.50am

Playtime, followed by a fruit snack and a drink

10.50am - 12pm

Our second lesson of the day will either be Maths or English
