Year 2 Newsletters

Important information:

PE

P.E is on Tuesday and Thursday. Please ensure P.E. kits are in school every day as lesson times might change.

We have outdoor P.E. on Thursday so you must ensure your child has an outdoor P.E. kit for this day. Kit includes a plain shirt that is white or your team's colour, shorts/tracksuit bottoms and trainers. Can hair be tied back and any jewellery including earrings be removed for these days.

Home Readers

Children that are completing phonics will be issued with a reading book. This is to be returned everyday in their book bag provided. When your child has read to you, please write a comment in the correct section. Each time a child reads at home and their diary is signed, they will receive a Dojo point. Please encourage your children to read at home as much as possible. If you need any help or advice please speak with the class teacher. There will be workshops in within the year to assist you with this. The reading books children bring home are directly matched to their phonic ability. Children that are off phonics will receive a banded book. This is usually white band or lime band. These books are longer and therefore only a few pages may be read each day. Encourage the children to learn new vocabulary using glossaries.

Our Curriculum Drivers

At Sacred Heart, our curriculum is rooted in skills that we believe will prepare our children for life beyond Year 6. Each and every lesson aims to develop children to become courageous, independent and resilient learners that can effectively communicate  with their peers.
