On Friday and every other Wednesday we have PE.

Our PE kit is our school kit (available from the school office) and black pumps.

Children should attend school in their PE kit on these days.

Homework will be sent home on a Friday and should be brought back by the following Wednesday.

We also use Seesaw to set some homework activities.

Reading books will be changed weekly. We encourage the children to read every day and have books for them to enjoy in class! At home, you can also use the Active Learning (Bug Club) website to read online books. A log in has been sent home.  It is very important to make sure that reading books are back in time so that they can be quarantined before staff are able to change them.

Learning to write and spell is really important in Year 2, so any opportunity to practise at home would be fantastic!
