Year 2 PE days are Wednesday and Friday. Please bring your child in their PE kit on these days, they can stay in this for the rest of the day.

As a healthy school we want all children to have access to drinking water throughout the day.  Please ensure that your child brings a drink bottle of fresh water every day.

So that your child is prepared for all the activities throughout the school week please remember to bring these things every day:

• Book bag
• Reading scheme books (usually changed on a Friday)
• Library book (changed on Thursdays)
• PE Days are Wednesdays and Fridays
  Please bring your child to school in their PE kit, they can remain in this all day.

Every week your child will be given homework on Friday.  This is a way of keeping you informed about what your child has been learning throughout the week.  It also supports your child's learning by giving them the chance to practise what they have been taught.  We hope that you will support your child with this work at a time convenient to you, and return it to school at some point throughout the following week.

Reading scheme books will be given to children on a weekly basis.  Sometimes your child will have read a different book within a group and therefore may not have read the scheme book with an adult.  You can supplement your child's reading material by selecting books from the shared reading boxes which are on the trolley outside in the playground on a morning. These are organised so that they progressively more difficult from box 1 to 9. Please note that these books are NOT phonetically decodable and do not link with our phonics scheme.
