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 here for KS1 and KS2) 
  • All About Me — (available here for KS1 and KS2) 
  • My Favourite Lesson — (coming in November) 
  • My Super Self (coming in December) 

• 📚 Teacher extras, including: 
  • Competition entry guide and slip — the Teachers’ Slip must be completed if you are entering by post.
  • Wellbeing reflection sheet
  • Pen licence certificate
  • Printable wall calendar

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 

We have nearly £1,000 worth of prizes up for grabs this term — and every sheet your class completes gives you two chances to win:
