Welcome to Acorn Class

We are an Early Years Reception and Year One class; our teacher and Key Person is Mrs Pawson.
Mrs Clemmett, Mrs Buggy and Miss Thorpe are teaching assistants at our school they enjoy learning with us at different times during the week.
We have both an indoor and outdoor classroom full of exciting areas for learning which help us build and master a variety of skills. No day is ever the same in our class and we love a sense of adventure, we have fun and enjoy being busy, everything we do is a learning experience. We love to 'live life in all its fullness and shine like stars' and we aspire to do so with, love, kindness, patience and peace.
In Early Years our learning journey is led by the interests of the children and we enjoy learning in a practical way. Our journey as independent learners is very important - we strongly believe the skills we develop in our early years help us thrive throughout our lives.
In Year One we continue on our learning journey, exploring further what it means to work as an Historian, Scientist, Theologian, Geographer, Artist... and many more as we learn more in each of the areas of our Curriculum. Our learning is exciting and we love to share our interests.
Beyond everything else in Acorn Class and in our school, we love to read, we are all readers and our love of reading is important and special, we nurture this love in everything we do!
