Year 1 welcome some very hungry caterpillars to OCPS!

16th Apr 2026

Year 1 have had a brilliant first week back after the Easter break. It was lovely to see everyone reunited with their friends, full of smiles and excitement as they settled back into school life. The children made the most of every opportunity to enjoy outdoor play, despite the changeable weather. In the garden, they were busy planting potatoes. Can you remember how many days we have to count until they are ready to eat?

We were delighted to welcome five new class pets - our very own HUNGRY CATERPILLARS! The children are already fascinated by them and are looking forward to observing their transformation over the coming weeks. What an exciting journey ahead.
