Miss Brewer is the class teacher of Year 1. Mrs Davies and Mrs Staite are the teaching assistants across KS1.

Saint Joseph, the Worker, is our class saint. He was a carpenter and is often depicted with either the tools of his trade to signify that he was a worker. Work is seen as something that brings dignity to the human person as it is the means 'of providing for his life and that of his family, and of serving the human community'. Therefore, Saint Joseph helps us to understand the importance of the dignity and rights of workers - that everyone's work should be safe and helpful to them because God made them - part of our Catholic Social Teaching.

Reading is really important in Year One as we continue to progress with our phonics knowledge. Children are encouraged to read daily at home and record it on the Go read app. In class we read for pleasure in the book corner and have phonics sessions daily. We are also learning to read for meaning and answer questions about the books that we read.
