Welcome to Autumn Term in Year 1
(2025-2026)

Welcome to the Autumn Term in Year 1. We look forward to getting to know your children and progressing their learning through creative, fun and engaging activities.

Year 1 Team

Mrs Franklin is the Year 1 class teacher and Miss Sibley will support the children. On a Tuesday afternoon the class will be taught by Mrs Warner and Ms Tyson.

Additional Information

Library

The children will be able to take home a library book of their choice on a Tuesday. Please return the books on a Monday to be able to take home a new one the next day.

PE

In the Autumn term, PE is on Wednesday and Friday afternoons.

Reading

Two reading books will come home on a Friday. Please return them to school on the following Wednesday. Reading records will also come home on a Friday and should be returned on a Wednesday. Please record any reading at home in your child's reading record. We encourage the children to read at least four times a week. If they do, they will get a sticker  in their reading record. Once they have ten stickers, we congratulate them with a reading certificate. They can earn bronze, silver and gold certificates throughout the year.

Refreshments

Please send in a named water bottle for classroom use; this is additional to the lunchtime drink. You may also send in a named healthy snack for morning break.

Your child will be provided with an afternoon snack each day to eat during our afternoon breaktime, which will be a piece of fruit or vegetable.

We would really appreciate it if your child could have a suitably sized bag (large enough for an A4 book) to bring their books to and from school.

Please do check back in with the class page on the website regularly. Use the icons below to find out more about the curriculum overview and progression for Year 1 and to find further ways to support your child with their learning.

If you have any questions or queries, please feel free to make an appointment through the office or send an email to office@cedarpark.bucks.sch.uk and someone will get back to you as soon as possible.

Thank you!

Mrs Franklin
