Apple Tree

Welcome to Apple Tree Class

 

Apple Tree Class is the learning space for children in Year 1 and Year 2 (Key Stage 1). For some academic years, due to the fluctuating size of our cohorts, Year 1 is split between Apple Tree and Cherry Tree classes; in this circumstance the younger Year 1 children are allocated to Cherry Tree and the Older Year 1 children are allocated to Apple Tree. 

For 2023-24

  • Apple Tree class is home to our Year 2 children and the older half of our Year 1 cohort. 
  • The Class Teachers for Apple Tree class are Mrs Noble (Monday to Wednesday) and Mrs Williams (Thursday to Friday)
  • Learning Coaches that you may see in Apple tree class are Mrs Chadwick, Mrs Sampson and/or Mrs Pink (our learning coaches move around the school)
