Welcome to Deer class
Key Dates and Notices
Coats, hats and sun cream : As the weather can change very quickly throughout the day, please make sure your child brings a raincoat to school every day, even if it looks sunny in the morning.
With hotter weather forecast for next week, children will need sun cream already applied. If your child requires sun cream to be reapplied during the day, please ensure they have a clearly labelled bottle of sun cream in their bag and that they are able to apply it independently. All children will also need a named sun hat or cap to wear during outdoor activities and playtimes.
Thank you for your support.
PE Days – PE is on Wednesday and Friday
Please ensure that PE kit is worn into school on both of these days and earrings are removed.
Library day – Thursday. Children can change their books on this day if they wish.

What a fantastic half-term Year 2 have had! We have loved learning all about the Titanic and discovering fascinating facts about the famous ship. We also enjoyed an amazing trip to the Sea-City Museum, where we explored exciting artefacts and learnt even more about the Titanic’s journey. To finish our topic, we performed a wonderful class assembly all about the Titanic, and we were so proud to share our learning through our amazing performance! Well done everyone, have a lovely half-term.

Our PE this half-term has been focussing on a variety of different multi-skills. The children were practising their kicking and striking skills, setting up comes and footballs to help them. They were also focusing on their rolling skills using hoops and cones. They worked together in teams and completed the activities in groups, listening well together.

Welcome back to Year 2. It has been lovely to see everyone and catch up with what you have all been up to over the summer. We have had a busy day recapping the school and classroom rules, completing our own class charter, talking about how to be safe online, as well as setting up our English and maths books and reviewing how to present our work neatly. We are now all ready to start our learning next week!
