Welcome to Owlets Class!
The class is taught by Mrs Wilcox and is made up of a mixed group of Reception and Year One children. The children in Owlets are naturally curious and enthusiastic learners, and we nurture this by providing an engaging, active learning environment that reflects their interests and supports their individual needs.
Our Reception children’s learning and development is guided by the Early Years Foundation Stage (EYFS) Framework, while our Year One children follow the National Curriculum. We aim to create a happy, supportive classroom where every child feels confident to explore, learn and thrive.

Owlets love phonics! They have lessons everyday where they learn the sounds that letters (and combinations of letters) make. They develop their skills in blending sounds to read words, and segmenting words into sounds to spell them accurately. They also learn about 'tricky words' (such as the, was, he, to) that do not follow the phonetic code. Once children have mastered words, they quickly move on to reading and writing sentences.
