Hello and welcome to F1.
Teacher - Mrs O’Hanlon

Welcome to F1! We are so excited to welcome our youngest children as they begin their school journey with us. F1 is a happy, caring and fun place where children can learn through play, explore new ideas and make lots of new friends. Every day is full of new experiences, little discoveries and opportunities to grow in confidence. We love celebrating each child and all the wonderful things that make them unique. We can’t wait to see our F1 children learn, laugh, grow and flourish with us!
