Class 2: Years 1 and 2

Welcome to Class 2

(Years 1 and 2)

Happy New Year!

I hope that you have all had a wonderful Christmas. Our topic this term is 'Down on the Farm', which will be enhanced with an exciting trip to Sandfields Farm. The children will learn about the geography of a farm and the life cycles of some farmyard animals. Our English lessons will focus on the non-fiction genre with the children producing a class information book about farm animals. I am sure that all of the children will thoroughly enjoy out topic this term. If the children have any books or objects associated with our topic we would love to see them.

With the colder weather approaching please ensure that the children have a warm coat in school each day, along with a hat and gloves if possible.

There are lots of events coming up this term. Please do check the ‘dates for diary’ section on the parent’s page, the Weekly Newsletter, and our noticeboard outside school.

The timetable for afternoon sessions this term:

Monday - PE/PSCHE

Tuesday- Topic

Wednesday - Science

Thursday - Topic through art/DT and French

Friday - Forest School

Miss Mountford, Ms Gorton and Mrs Dearman will continue providing valuable support on a part-time basis. We will all work together on PSHCE and interventions; with Mrs Mason as our SENCo across the Federation.

This term we will be focussing on our Christian value - Courage; ensuring we all understand what it means and how to embed it in all we do.

Throughout the term, we will be updating our class page with our adventures in Class 2. Once again on a Friday morning (between 8:45 and 9:00am) you are very welcome in our classroom. Please come and look at your children’s books and our classroom displays.

Please feel free to come in and speak to me and arrange a suitable time to meet if you have any questions or concerns. I look forward to working closely with you during 2020.

Mrs Kelly Hobkirk
