R, 1 & 2 - Wrens Class

At Great Wishford Primary School we have a combined Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 class. We use our two-year curriculum mapping and subject progression documents to ensure accurate and consistent coverage of the National Curriculum and Early Learning Goals.

Update for 19th September 2025

The first few weeks of term have been full of energy, creativity, and learning across all our year groups—and we couldn’t be prouder of how everyone has settled in!

Years 1 and 2 have been working incredibly hard around the much-loved book I Want My Hat Back by Jon Klassen. The children explored rich vocabulary, learnt all about adjectives, and even created their own characters to join the story! To top it off, they designed and made their own fabulous versions of Rice Hats—each one bursting with imagination and flair.

Reception (Year R) have had a fantastic time settling into life at Great Wishford. From exploring magnets to diving into fun activities in Provision, their enthusiasm has been infectious!

We’ve also loved hearing directly from the children about their experiences:

“I’ve been so happy and excited with my writing!” — Imogen 

“I loved creating my own hat.” — Owen 

“I was so excited to write for the first time in Year 1.” — Clementine 

“PE has been amazing—I love exploring and moving around!” — Jayce  “Learning about Maths has been really fun!” — George

It’s been a brilliant beginning, and we’re excited to see all the wonderful things our children will achieve this term.

PE Days

Wren Class will complete PE on Mondays and Thursdays. Please make sure your child has a PE kit with them for these days. It is very useful for KS1 and EYFS to have a spare set of uniform in their school bag in case of accidents, splashing in puddles or water spillages.
