Year 1
Welcome to Year 1
My name is Mrs Beales and I teach Year 1 with the assistance of Miss Sawyer and Mrs Read. If you have any questions then please call school or email me on heatherbeales@stonehill.herts.sch.uk . I will try to answer them as soon as I can.
PE days for Year 1 are Tuesdays and Wednesdays, so please send your child into school dressed in their PE kit and trainers. Don't forget a coat.
Homework will be on Google Classroom very soon. The children will have their log in information and a practise on how to do this. I will be up loading a step by step picture guide on here, which will show how to do it too. Watch this space!
