Orchard Park Community Primary School

A place where children are empowered to reach their full potential, with the highest possible aspirations and passion for learning. With values and respect, our children are confident to move from our nurturing environment to explore and succeed in the wider world.

Welcome to Butterflies Class!


Butterflies marks the start of our Key Stage 1 journey, where children begin transitioning from the EYFS framework to the Year 1 National Curriculum. We encourage independence and confidence in learning.

Phonics continues into Phase 5 using the Little Wandle scheme, building on skills from Nursery and Reception in preparation for the Year 1 phonics screening.

Our curriculum features exciting topics enriched by trips and visitors, such as a midwife visit, Ely Toy Museum, and a seaside trip to Wells beach. Children also take part in the KS1 and EYFS Nativity, showcasing their speaking and performance skills.

Our topics for the year are:

  • Autumn 1: Brilliant Babies

  • Autumn 2: Toy Story

  • Spring 1: Wonderful Wildlife

  • Spring 2: Island Adventures

  • Summer 1: Magical Moon

  • Summer 2: Big Blue Sea
