Welcome to Year 2!

Class teacher – Miss Quelcutti

SEN TA's – Miss Fordham and Miss Rutter

We are looking forward to a wonderful year of learning, growing and having fun together. We will explore exciting topics, develop new skills and encourage children to become confident, kind and independent learners.

PE
Year 2 have PE on Monday and Thursday afternoons.

Pupils will change into PE kits at school on their PE day, so please ensure that kits are in school by Wednesday. It is fine to leave PE kits on pegs throughout the week, rather than bring them home each day.

Please ensure all items are named, to reduce the likelihood of items of clothing getting lost.

Please make sure that earrings are taped over with plasters or microporous tape on PE days. Only stud earrings should be worn to school.

PE Kit:
Plain white t-shirt
Black or purple shorts

Suitable trainers for outside PE

Please remember to pack a pair of socks if your child is wearing tights
Black or purple jogging bottoms (for autumn/winter outdoor PE)
Black or purple sweatshirt/hoody (for autumn/winter outdoor PE)

Reading

The children will read every day at school during our whole class reading sessions.

Pupils will also have the opportunity to borrow a book from the school library each week. These can be changed every Monday.

Please read every day with your child, taking time to talk about the story, discuss the pictures and ask questions. Reading folders must come in to school every day.

Please write in your child’s reading record when you have heard them read at home so that we know how they are getting on and enjoying their chosen texts.

Snack and Lunch

Year 2 are entitled to free school meals.
Please pre-order school meals at home to help us to have a smooth start to the day.

The school provides a fruit or vegetable snack for mid-morning break, but children can bring a fruit or vegetable snack in from home if they wish.

Please avoid all nut products in lunchboxes, due to a number of allergies in school.
