Ms. Boardman, Mrs. Foster and Mrs Oldman  would like to welcome you to Hedgehogs' class page on our school website.

Our class page will be updated on a half termly basis so that we can share our learning journey with you as it unfolds over the academic year. 

Our topic this half term is 'Marvellous Me!' Through our learning we will be thinking about the philosophical question, 'What makes me different?'

We can't wait to see the learning that takes place this half term! Watch this space for updates.  

We are coming to our last block of learning in our Hedgehog class. Our Summer term is all about journeys and seaside.

Our learning is 'We're all going on a Summer Holiday'. 

Would you rather rather swim or build sandcastles?

We shall be looking at all different kinds of maps and reading stories about different places around the world.

We shall be visiting a farm and cementing all our learning from last term when we learned about farm animals and their babies.

In Maths , we will be focusing on direction and positional language. We will also be looking at patterns in numbers and will be adding and subtracting numbers .

In phonics , we will be continuing with learning to read and write phase four words. This phases has lots of adjacent consonants and children will learn to read longer words.

Each class at St. Patrick’s has a class saint that we learn about throughout the year. We talk about our Saint regularly and encourage the children to learn, talk and ask questions about their Saint. Each Saint has a Feast Day, where we celebrate their lives and what they did in order to become a Saint.

In Hedgehogs, our class saint is Saint Margaret of Scotland. St. Margaret of Scotland was an English princess, then a Scottish Queen before becoming a Saint. St. Margaret of Scotland’s feast day is the 16^th of November.
