Thank you for visiting our class page! Here you will find all the up-to-date information about everything happening in Walker class.

Our class teacher this year will be Miss Matthews, we are also very lucky to have Miss Stasik and Mrs Rogers there to support us throughout the day.

We also have a class twitter that will be updated regularly:  @_MissMatthews  Follow us!

We are a mixed Year 1/2 class with an exciting year ahead of us - with the introduction of our continuous provision area throughout the KS1 classes. This gives the children an opportunity to become increasingly more independent with their learning and development. We can't wait for the children to see what has been created for them!

Reading, through the use of our new phonics program, Little Wandle will also be a big focus this year. We are hoping for much happier and confident readers this year, providing opportunities for reading throughout every lesson too! We will deliver this phonics program to improve our children's reading, fluency and comprehension skills.   

With this in mind, we would appreciate it if you could read with your child daily to ensure they are making progress - and please let me know of any brilliant reading happening at home!

I am looking forward to our year in Walker Class and all the amazing things we will be learning!

Please contact the office with any questions for me.

See you on Monday 4th September!

Miss Matthews
