Robin Class


Welcome to Robin Class

In Robin Class, Mrs Michaela Hicks (Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday) Dr Alex Mirrington (Thursday, Friday) are the class teachers. The Teaching Assistants are Mrs Joe Martin and Ms Donna Wren (Tuesday, Wednesday, Thursday)
Robin Class is made up of Nursery, Reception and Year One. Nursery and Reception children are all working on the EYFS (Early Years Foundation Stage) curriculum and working towards Early Learning Goals. The Year One Children follow the Year One National Curriculum. 

Our Learning Approach

In Robin Class we create a safe, enjoyable and nurturing learning environment for the children.

Our Learning Environment

We engage in a variety of exciting learning including hands on practical activities and sessions in our outdoor learning area and the Year Ones start to engage in a more formal approach to learning as the year progresses,

Oracy

We are committed to building children’s oracy skills and children are encouraged to share their ideas in whole class discussions and with a learning partner on the carpet before moving onto their independent or group task.

Reading & Writing

Early reading and writing is a key focus for Robin Class children and we use the RWI Phonics programme to help children become confident readers and writers.

Mathematics

In maths we follow the White Rose maths scheme and the NCETM The Mastering Number Programme. Children engage in practical activities to secure understanding.

Experiences

We have exciting termly topics planned for the children, which will help them have a good understanding of our world, together with lots of enrichment activities to enhance the children’s learning.
