Welcome to the Year 2 Class Page!

24th March 2016 - During Holy week the children have been reflecting on the events leading up to Jesus' death. They have produced some wonderful, though provoking writing, some of which can be seen below.

The weblink to Oxford Owl is below the photos of the children's work.

5th February 2016 - Due to photocopier issues the children did not bring a homework sheet or maths homework home with them, however they do have their spellings and reading books. For maths I would like them to practise their 2, 5 and 10 times tables and the related division facts. Please speak to me next week if you would like further information.
