Year in the Classroom: Our new competition for 2025/2026

Term One

✏️Theme: Who We Are

September – December 2025

A brand-new school year is here — and so is Term One of Year in the Classroom — our biggest-ever Teachers’ Club competition!

The theme — Who We Are — is all about helping pupils reflect on themselves, their classroom community, and what makes them unique. From first-day feelings to favourite lessons, this is your pupils’ chance to capture the beginning of their school journey in 2025–26.

📥What to expect in Term One of the competition

Each sheet is short, creative, and easy to build into your day — whether that’s part of a morning warm-up or a quiet Friday activity. This term’s competition sheets will include: 

  • ✍️ Four KS1 & KS2 competition sheets for your pupils, released monthly: 
    • Letter to My Future Self — (available now for KS1 and KS2
    • All About Me — (coming in October) 
    • My Favourite Lesson — (coming in November) 
    • My Super Self (coming in December) 

All activities are designed to support handwriting, creativity, and pupil voice — with a little help from the Noris handwriting pen and the iconic yellow-and-black pencil, of course. 

🎁 Prizes up for grabs 

Every sheet your class completes gives you two chances to win

1. Mini prizes

Each monthly competition sheet will have one KS1 and one KS2 winner, chosen at the end of the term. Winners will receive: 

  • STAEDTLER Noris stationery bundles 
  • Creative classroom goodies 
  • A surprise treat for the winning teacher 

2. Grand termly prizes

One overall winner will be selected from across all entries received this term — to win an amazing prize bundle.

Every monthly sheet offers a new chance to win. Submit just one, or enter all four — it’s totally up to you, and every entry counts.
