Ash Class
Our class teacher is Miss Pearson. Ash Class is our youngest class for Reception (EYFS). We have our own outdoor area, which we use in all weathers during learning time.
Miss Pearson aims to support all of the children in Ash class to become happy, independent, confident, curious and successful learners by providing a secure, safe and stimulating learning environment.
