Class teacher - Miss Hughes

Hi, I'm Miss Hughes! I'm so excited to be joining Stock and teaching Year 1 in September. 

I love art in all forms and anything creative, especially writing stories and illustrating them. I also love travelling and try to visit new destinations each year. My favourites so far have been Venice, Prague, St Petersburg and the Norwegian fjords, and next on my bucket list is Japan, or to return to Venice for the annual carnival!

In my free time, I'm usually meeting friends for coffee, exploring new places, or spending time with my family (including my cat – a ginger ball of fluff named Bruce). I've also just completed a MSc in Psychology, which I've really enjoyed studying alongside my creative interests. 

PE days:

Tuesday & Wednesday - on these days children are to wear their PE kit to school.

Curriculum overview:

Please see below the curriculum overview for this half-term. Please discuss with your child at home the learning they are completing in class.

Homework expectations:

Reading - Children are sent home with a reading pack on a Tuesday which needs to be returned to school the following Monday for us to change the pack. Please read for 10 minutes daily.

Spelling - Children have spelling words to learn each week. Spelling tests take place on a Thursday with new words sent home in a spelling folder each Friday.

Maths - Children will also have a Maths Facts test every Thursday. The children should know what level they are on so they know what type of questions to practise. The information sheet about these tests are in the front of their spelling folders.

Please practice the spelling words and maths facts every day.
