Hello to our new Year 2!
We hope you are as excited as we are to be starting a new year in school. This year, our team will consist of Mrs Cushing, Mrs Gislam, Miss Jordan and Miss Wilson.
This year, we will be exploring the concept of ‘Development’. We will be looking at how our world has developed over time and the effect these developments have had on society.
In Maths, we will be learning multiplication facts for the 2s, 5s and 10s. Your child should practise these regularly at home to gain fluency.
It is a school expectation that children read at home at least three times a week. It is so important that this happens as often as possible as it has such an impact on not only their reading skills but in other areas of learning too. If it is a longer book, your child can read a couple of pages each evening. We ask that an adult signs the reading record every time a child reads at home.
Lastly, P.E. kits are required on a Wednesday and Friday. For safety reasons, children will need earrings to be removed on these days. All items of clothing will need to be labelled. If children could please have a water bottle every day for class this would be greatly appreciated.
If you have any concerns please do not hesitate to come and talk to us. This can be done either by arranging an appointment after school or if necessary, an appointment can be made that day.
We really look forward to teaching Year 2 and hope it is a good year for us all!

Seaside Rocks
We walked to the Time and Tide Museum on 29.3.23. We met a Victorian lady who told us about the seaside and having a 'Penny Lick' icecream with some very interesting flavours. We also found out that the glass of icecream would be filled after each person and not washed!
We also watched a Punch and Judy Show and learned about the Mods and Rockers who became friends at the end.
Our writing included directions to the Time and Tide Museum and a narrative 'The Missing Sausages' about Punch and Judy.
