Year 2 Printing

Today in art we linked our Geography topic all about Australia and created some wonderful Aboriginal prints. Some real masterpieces were created!

Parent/ Carer Survey

Many thanks to all of the parents who took the time to complete and return a parent survey.  Your child’s name was recorded on the surveys as they were given back to school and three winners were chosen at random.  The winners are:

Mila – Nursery

Logan – Year 5

Kira – Reception

Congratulations! A £50 Asda voucher will be handed to you by your child’s class teacher this week.

The surveys are still being read and analysed by our staff team. Please keep your eyes peeled on the website for a response over the next few weeks.

Year 2 Cinema Trip

We loved watching Sonic at Cineworld today!  All the children were so well behaved, we even had a comment from a member of the public who said how smart and sensible they were walking from the coach to the cinema.

26.11.21 Christmas update

Dear Parents/Carers,

Over the next few weeks, we have let you know of some very exciting events that we have got planned for the children to get them into the festive spirit.

As a school, we are continuing to tightly follow COVID-19 guidelines to ensure that we keep the virus at bay. In line with these guidelines, if your child is attending the cinema or pantomime, it is optional for them to wear face coverings on the coach and when seated in the theatre. Members of staff will ensure that there is ventilation on the coaches as we know that this is key to limiting the spread of transmission. Hand gel will also be provided to the children on the trips at relevant intervals. We are tightly following the risk assessment guidelines issued by the theatre.

As mentioned in previous parent correspondence, if your child is feeling unwell or displaying symptoms, please refrain from sending them into school and take a precautionary test.

Please refer to class pages on the website for further information about year group specific events.

Many thanks

Miss Cook

 

Year 2 Life Learning

This week in our Life Learning lesson we made ‘tool belts’ with strategies we could use to help cope with our different emotions and feelings.

Christmas cards in school

As Christmas comes increasingly closer, your child may be preparing for the annual Christmas card writing session! As in previous years, we will be isolating cards before we send them out. In order for us to do this, the last date that classes will accept cards will be Friday 10th December – no cards will be accepted in after this date. This is to allow the Newdale elves time to sort and send the cards to the correct people!

 

 

Year 2 Nature Walk – Wednesday 1st December

Year 2 Nature Walk – Wednesday 1st December

Year 2 will be going on their nature walk during the afternoon after lunch. They will have their school photos on this day too.

Please ensure your child comes to school with a warm/waterproof coat, hat, scarf and gloves if you wish and appropriate footwear. If they bring wellies, please bring them in a carrier bag as we will change into them after lunch.

Thank you

Year 2 team

Year 2 Junk Modelling

Mrs Trevor’s class had a wonderful, noisy afternoon creating their own musical instrument with their junk. They understood that percussion instruments are hit, shaken or tapped to make a sound. We hope you enjoy listening to them at home!
