P.E.

We have PE on a Wednesday and Friday afternoons. Please ensure that your child has the correct PE kit and footwear for these sessions. During the colder months, please provide appropriate layers and outerwear for the weather.

Please remember to label your child's PE kit with their name and class.

Snacks/Drinks

Children are encouraged to bring in a healthy snack for their morning break. This should either be fruit or vegetable based. All children should also bring a named water bottle to drink throughout the day.

Reading in Year 2

Reading is so important and helps with our entire curriculum. We encourage all children to read at home daily. Reading books are changed at least twice a week and children will also bring home their Guided Reading book every Friday.

Each class also has a ‘Sleepover Book Buddy’ bag which children take turns to take home for a week. Inside, you will find a selection of different things to read, a bear to read to and a notebook to record what and where you have read.

Library

We visit the school library every Monday to change our books.

Independence

We expect children to become increasingly independent as they progress through Key Stage One. We will support them to begin to change reading books independently and to develop more responsibility for their own belongings and equipment.
