  • Year 1 Joshua

    Welcome to Year 1 Joshua

    Here you will find photos and information about the things we have been learning in our class.

    Homework and Spellings

    Class Celebration of The Word - We love taking it in turns to lead our class in prayer.

    Our Easter Liturgy

    We all very proud of Year 1’s performance in their Easter Liturgy.  They have all worked so hard to learn their lines and performed so confidently.  Through prayer,  reflection and story telling, the children told the story of Jesus’ resurrection.  They taught everyone about the true symbols of Easter—butterflies, palm leaves and the Paschal candle to name but a few.  Well done Year 1 and thank you for sharing such interesting information with us.
