Learning in Year 2

Currently in maths in year 2, the children are looking at multiplication and division including doubling and halving and identifying odd and evens numbers. Here are some useful interactive games that you might like to play with your children at home.

Hit the Button is a useful website for times tables and also includes a doubling and halving section too!

Sporting achievement board

Lots of children take part in some wonderful, varied sports outside of school and we would love for them to celebrate their achievements with the other children and staff (no matter how big or small).  Mrs Goodwin has been busy creating an achievement board where children can share certificates, pictures or medals with a small write up about the event.  If you would like to send anything into school to be included, you can either pass on to the class teacher, or e-mail us at newdale.primary@taw.org.uk

Many thanks

Let’s Dine School Meals Competition

At Lets Dine we  are always working towards providing  healthy meal choices, supporting the reduction of  obesity in schools and supporting schools with their universal infant free school meal uptake as it’s a free meal. To promote this work we are  launching a school meals competition. All pupils in Reception to Year 6 classes (key stage 1and 2 only) which are catered by Let’s Dine are eligible to enter whether they are paid or free meals.

To enter the competition pupils will need to have a school meal (hot or cold) for 40 days between 13 January 2020 and 27 March 2020.

Prizes include:

  • 2 iPads

  • a family ice hockey ticket
  • a hamper

  • a book voucher
  • 2 Area 51 tickets.

Prizes will be randomly drawn. Winners will be invited to a prize drawing event where prizes will be drawn at random. The school where the lucky winner attends  will receive a free Eatwell session (a session where 8 children prepare fresh ingredients, make a dish using those ingredients and eat what they have made).

Entries will be recorded on a cashless system against pupil’s accounts when they have a meal. At the end of the competition the system will produce a list of pupil’s names who have had 40 or more school meals. These names will be entered in a random name generator.

Those schools that do not have a cashless system will be collated at site and the names added to the final list.

To enter the competition and for a chance to win an iPad entrants will need to have a school meal (hot or cold) for 40 days between 13 January 2020 and 27 March 2020.
