PE Days
Monday and Thursday
Please wear PE kits to school only on these days. No earrings please.
Homework.
Homework is set every Friday on Dojo and is due the following week. It helps reinforce what your child has learned in class and encourages independence and good study habits. Please support your child in completing their homework on time – and as a little extra motivation, they earn 5 Dojo points for doing so!
Maths:
By the end of the academic year, Year 2 pupils are expected to know and rapidly recall the 2, 5 and 10 times tables. These can be practised regularly using TT Rock Stars. Your child was given their login details in Term 1; if they are unable to remember them, please let us know and we will be happy to help.
Reading:
Please ensure your child brings their reading book into school every day. Books are changed every Tuesday.
Aim to read with your child at least five times each week and remember to sign the reading record, noting any comments or observations.
You can deepen your child’s understanding of the text by asking questions, exploring new and interesting words using a dictionary, and developing inference skills by asking questions such as “Why do you think that happened?” or “What do you think will happen next?”

Term 3 Values: Eloquent and Truthful
Term 3
RE:
In term 3 we are focusing on key themes and stories from the journey of Jesus from Galilee to Jerusalem. It introduces important concepts such as sin, reconciliation, miracles, parables, forgiveness, and baptism, helping children build a foundation of faith and understanding.
Each section explains a key term or story in simple language, with images to engage young learners and help them connect with their learning. This overview helps families follow the themes taught in class and encourages discussion at home.
We hope this helps you support your child’s spiritual growth and understanding of our faith journey.

Term 3: Being a Geographer – End of Enquiry Challenge
As part of our Being a Geographer enquiry, the children explored the big question: “How are schools the same?”
Working in groups, the children compared two schools from different parts of the world and created fantastic posters to show what they discovered. They used pictures to spot similarities and wrote full sentences to explain their ideas clearly and confidently.
The posters share interesting facts about what school life is like in different countries, including the physical features of the places where the schools are located. The children also impressed us by using geographical vocabulary to explain their thinking.
We are very proud of the teamwork, curiosity, and geographical skills shown in these posters. Please enjoy looking at the photos below and celebrating the children’s learning with us!
