Year 1/2 - Mandela 2025 - 2026

Welcome to Mandela Class!

Hello, My name is Mrs Hulbert and I am the class teacher in our Year 1 / 2 Mandela class this year. I have been at Cheadle Heath Primary School since 2014 and having spent most of my time here in EYFS I am really looking forward to moving in to KS1 where I can join the children on the next step of their Cheadle Heath journey. I am looking forward to working alongside Miss King-Barker, Mrs Murphy and Miss Shelmerdine in our new KS1 team.

In KS1 we build on the solid foundations established in Reception and continue to support children as they grow into confident, independent learners. Our classroom is a nurturing and engaging environment where every child is encouraged to thrive. We follow the full Key Stage 1 curriculum while continuing to use elements of continuous provision to support learning through play, exploration and hands-on experiences. This approach allows us to meet each child’s individual needs while fostering a love of learning that will last a lifetime. It’s a pleasure to guide and support the children on the next stage of their educational journey.

Outside of school I am an avid reader and can often be found curled up with a good book, usually joind by either my dog, Dexter, or my cats, Bonnie and Jaffa. I love to spend time outdoors whether it be taking Dexter to the park,  visiting the beach or at the football watching Manchester City Womens and Mens team. More recently I am attempting to develop my baking skills although this is definitely a work in progress!

I hope that this page, along with Class Dojo, will keep parents and carers up to date with all the wonderful things that are happening in Mandela Class
