Welcome to Acorns Class

A caring village school with a family feel where relationships are at the heart of all we do. Our unique community is connected under the protection of the tree of life, where all are enabled to grow and flourish in their own surprising ways’

We are an enthusiastic class of Nursery, Reception and Year One children that enjoy exploring and working together.

Mrs Butcher is the class teacher and is supported by Miss Stayt.

What we’ve been up to

After a restful half term we have come back to school with a bang for Fireworks night. We have been writing our own fireworks poems and talking about the lovely experiences we have had.

This week has started with Remembrance Day. We all walked to the war memorial together to lay a wreath for the school and take part in 2 minutes silence.

This Term’s Big Question is:

Who am I?

These are some of the things we will be learning about through our different subjects:

Science - our bodies and the 5 different types of animals
