The three little pigs is out topic focus.... and the wolf is somewhere around!

Christmas Parties are always so much fun - especially at High View. We had a wonderful time with games and party food and we even had a visit from a very special person. Father Christmas himself! 

Our amazing Year 1's did an amazing job in the Nativity play 'Whoops a daisy angel'. I hope you enjoyed watching it as much as we enjoyed playing the parts. Here are 1DW and 1JS in their fabulous costumes. 

A new skill is always incredible to experience and see. Our Year 1's have been threading away using a needle and thread to create a brilliant calendar which we hope you enjoy throughout the year. 

Our Year 1 pupils have really enjoyed pretending they are fireworks in their dance classes. Have a look at our fabulous firework display. 

In Year 1 we have been learning all about Guy Fawkes and his Gunpowder Plot to blow up the houses of parliament in 1605. We learnt that after the plot was foiled the King decided to celebrate and that is why we have bonfire night. Here are some pictures of our learning. 

We celebrated our friends in Year 1 during anti-bullying week. We started by designing an amazing biscuit for our special friend. We then cooked and decorated and presented the biscuits to our Special Friends to take home at the end of the week. Here are a selection of photographs to show you what we did. 

Year 1 enjoyed a walk to the Train Station and an exciting train ride to Penistone. We looked out of the window and noted all the things we could see. We saw sheep in a field, a large crane, a motorway and lots of cars. When we arrived in Penistone we looked at how it differed to Wombwell. We then had a lovely packed lunch in the church before returning to school. Enjoy looking at the pictures of our adventure. 

Culture week in Y1 has been amazing! To learn about the story of Noah and his Ark, we have listened to the story from the bible, as a video, and as a singing story. We have represented our understanding of the story through artwork, drama, large and small construction, playdough, small world ark figures and in our reading area! Take a look at some of our learning!
