Wren Class

Vivaldi Class

We would like to take this chance to welcome you and your child to Year 1 and to introduce the team. Year 1 is made up of two classes, Vivaldi and Wren. The teachers are Mrs Matthews in Vivaldi Class and Mrs Pendlebury in Wren Class.  Supporting us in the classroom, we have wonderful Learning Support Assistants: Miss Procter, Miss Mcgann, Miss Allen and Mr Jones.

Over the year, your child will continue to be encouraged to become more independent and to take ownership of their own education. Throughout Year 1, we will focus on helping your child reach the standard required for the end of year 1 and help them to complete the Year 1 Phonics Screening Check. Please support your child by encouraging them to practice their sound cards at home.

At Ivanhoe, we value reading immensely, including reading for pleasure. Reading opens the doors to everything.  We have lots of reading incentives at Ivanhoe, including our new book vending machine!

We strongly believe that, by working together, we can help ensure that your child will reach their full potential. We communicate most things through Class DOJO and we are always available to answer any questions!

Here’s to a fantastic year!
