To help keep all pupils safe, please ensure the school has up-to-date information about any allergies your child may have. Accurate allergy information enables us to put appropriate support plans in place, train staff effectively, and respond quickly in an emergency. We all have a part to play in creating a safe environment, including following our nut-aware policy and being mindful of the food brought into school. If your child has an allergy, please contact the school or update their details via Arbor. Be Allergy Aware and Save A Life - see more here.

Year 1

Hello and welcome to Year 1

At New Horizons Primary School we have 2 rights:

  • The right to be safe and the responsibility to follow school and classroom rules.
  • The right to learn and the responsibility to use our learning heroes.

Reading and Writing

Most children in Year 1 will continue to practise the letter sounds (phonemes) they learnt in Early Years. They will practise instant recall of these sounds as well as blending them together to read words.

Children are encouraged to say what they will write before actually writing it in order to plan ideas in their head first.
