What a fantastic start to the year we have had in Year 1-2!

This week, our learning had been inspired by the wonderful artist Henri Rousseau and his painting Surprised! 🐯
We hope you like our wonderful creations.

In RE last week, Year One explored how we can care for others in the community. We thought about ways to show gratitude to our grown ups in school who work hard to make OFS a special place. Our chocolate crispies and thank you cards were gratefully received by all the staff!

What an absolutely wonderful last three days we have had in year 1 (with Mrs McGowan)⭐️

Mrs McGowan is so incredibly proud of every single one of you. We have wrapped up the school year with a forest school party! We designed our own colourful bunting to decorate our party space and decorated some delicious gingerbread biscuits.

“I am going to miss teaching you all. You have all been an absolute pleasure to teach, and I wish you all the best as you take the leap into year 2”😀🎉 from Mrs McGowan x
