We have put together some information which we hope will be useful for you over the coming year. Please do not hesitate to ask any questions you may have; our door is always open.

Our class webpage is a place where we can share news, keep parents up to date with classroom routines and the curriculum as well as giving us the chance to celebrate our children's work in school. 

 

Class Two information and reminders-

  • Doors open 8.30am for children to start their morning tasks. 
  • Doors close at 8.40am for register and handwriting.
  • PE will be every Monday afternoon. Please no earrings, plasters are not permitted. Children will need PE kit in line with the school policy. The children will come home in their kits on Tuesdays so please ensure it is weather appropriate.
  • Children should now be encouraged to dress themselves and tie their own laces. This is something that will need to be practised at home.
  • All items of clothing and belongings must have names on so we can help locate them if they are lost.
  • Milk can be ordered on the cool milk website. Once this is ordered your child will receive milk the following week.
  • Lunch can be ordered on the school gateway app. This can be done in advance and meals can be selected for up to three weeks at a time. Choices must be made before 8am each day if choosing on a daily basis.
  • Reading books must be in school every day with book bags.
  • Our homework this term will focus on reading. We would like children to read at least three times a week at home. They will be awarded 30 credits for every time this is recorded in their reading diaries. We will record who has completed this homework and update their credits total at the end of every week.
  • Reading books are linked to their Read Write Inc group in school.
  • We do encourage our children to read for pleasure regardless of their ability. Please enjoy telling and reading stories or rhymes of your choice at home. This really does help the children's vocabulary and imagination.
  • Year 2 children will have an additional spelling homework. Each Wednesday they will come home with a yellow spelling book where they need to practise the words. More information will be given in the booklets.
  • TT rockstars will be used to improve your child’s timetable knowledge this year. It is important that your child can log on to this independently with their user name and password.
  • Please could all children bring a water bottle to school each day.
