General Information to know about Year 2
Reading
Please read with your child at home as often as possible, this is a great time to bond with your child and create a love of reading.
All home reading books are signed out to children under a library system and they will be expected to return their current book before they are allowed to take another.
PE
PE will be every Friday. Children should come to school in their PE kits.
Personal items
Please ensure that items of clothing are clearly named. This will ensure that if anything goes missing it can be quickly reunited with its owner.
Please ensure your child has suitable footwear in school.
Please do not allow children to bring toys and other items from home. They are easily lost or cause upsets.
Drinks and snack
Children need to bring their own water bottles into school which they can use throughout the day and refill when needed. Please do not allow other drinks such as juice, fizzy drinks etc. Juices, smoothies etc. are only for lunch.
All children will receive free fruit snack each day.
In addition to fruit, children can purchase school hot snack which is priced at 20p - 35p per day. Please click here for more information relating to our healthy snack policy.
Children will need to bring their snack money in a purse/wallet that they will hand to one of the adults in the classroom to be kept safe in our snack money box.
