Hi and welcome back to the Summer Term.
Many thanks for all the lovely, positive comments that you have made about the new website so far.
In response to requests that we have had, we appreciate that it is both difficult and time-consuming to keep track of both the website and this blog on a weekly basis.
In order to address this, we have decided to trial a ‘one-stop shop’ for all weekly information and curriculum support for both Foundation Stage and Year 1. This means that the only site that you need to check each week from now on, will be the new school website.
How do I access the new site?
Go to http://www.stvincentsprimary.co.uk/ and click on Year Groups. This is on a menu bar on the left hand side of the screen.
Click on ‘Year 1’ and this will take you to the Year 1 homepage. If you scroll down on the homepage, you will find an outline of what we will be covering this week in class.
What about links to websites?
You will be able to access recommended websites, by click on the Curriculum link on the Year 1 homepage and then clicking on the links for each topic. From here, you can access more detailed information about each topic, as well as ideas of activities you can do at home to support your child.
The links section also contains general links for literacy, numeracy, science and general sites. All of the links will be added to as time goes on and new topics are covered.
You will also find lots of video clips to support different areas of the curriculum!
There are many other parts of the site to explore, but the only way to see everything that is available so far, is to go and look!
I have other children in other year groups – what about them?
The other year groups will also be rolling this out over the course of the Summer term. Until then, their blogs will continue as normal.
It has taken a great deal of time and effort to set up this site and new resources are being added all the time, but if there is anything you would like to see added, please do let us know and we will endeavour to accommodate any requests.
May we take this opportunity to thank you for all your support during this transition period and always.
Take care and have a good week!
Year 1 team. x
