In Year 1, students embarked on a captivating journey through various topics, each designed to ignite curiosity and foster a love of learning.  

The exploration began with maps, where children learned to identify key features and understand the world around them. This foundation led seamlessly into a fascinating dive into Ancient Egypt, where students compared life in ancient times with our modern world. These comparisons allowed them to appreciate both the similarities and differences in daily life, technology, and culture.  

Swimming classes were a highlight, with students developing confidence and skills in the water, while Olympics Day brought a burst of energy and excitement as they participated in friendly competitions, learning the values of teamwork and perseverance.  

Wellbeing Day provided a peaceful contrast, with yoga and mindful activities helping students connect with their emotions and practise self-care. This focus on wellbeing was complemented by continued growth in Mathematics and literacy, where students developed foundational skills through engaging and interactive lessons.  

Overall, 2024 was filled with diverse experiences that enhanced the students’ academic abilities and nurtured their physical and emotional wellbeing, setting a strong foundation for future learning.
