Year 2
Week Beginning 29th June 2026
We have had a very hot week in Year 2! We are so proud of the children and their resilience this week during the heatwave. Our children also had their transition day on Friday where they met their new teachers and explored their new classrooms. They should have gone home with a transition letter explaining all things Year 3 but if you have any additional questions, please feel free to ask Mrs Pine and I on the gate.
Next week is arts week! We have so much planned and we know that the children will enjoy expressing themselves through lots of different mediums.
Key Information:
- Saturday 27th June - St. James’ Summer Fayre
- Wednesday 22nd July - Break up for summer holidays @ 1:20pm
Worship Theme This Week: Relationship With “Beyond”
