Welcome!
Mrs Daly and Miss Haughey teach Reception, P1 and P2. They are supported by classroom assistants, Audrey, Danielle and Claire.
Welcome to the Reception, P1 and P2 class where you are sure of a learning environment that is:
- Safe and welcoming
- Child-centred
- Nurturing
- Stimulating and above all
- Happy!
Each and every child is important to us and throughout your child's early years at school we will support them in laying firm foundations so that they develop intellectually, personally, socially, emotionally at their own pace.
In our classroom, we promote Active Learning which is skills focused and age appropriate. This practical approach enables each child to achieve their potential by encouraging them to:
- experiment and create
- explore and have fun
- self-manage
- ask questions
- investigate and
- evaluate.
