Welcome to Year 2! Our topic this term is 'Castles and Dragons'. This topic is literacy based looking at stories which feature dragons and castles alongside children finding out some historical facts about castles. We will also be visiting Berkeley Castle in September. In Science we will be learning about materials used to build a castle alongside fire safety and a range of scientific experiments. Children are welcome to bring in any relevant information or resources.

For lots of resources about our topic and everything else visit the Espresso website. Parents have their own log in to use ...

Swimming begins on Monday 9th September. Please bring swimming costume and towel in a bag. Goggles may be worn if your child is used to wearing them at swimming. Armbands are NOT required. Swimming aids will be provided by Brean Splash. Please arrive promptly on a Monday morning as we set off on the coach immediately after the register.

Just a reminder, can all children please have a named P.E kit in school.

The Year 2 Welcome Meeting will be held on Tuesday 10th September at 9.05 in the school hall. Please try to attend as we have new information to share with you, particularly about reading.

We are still running the reading challenge to win 'Orlando the Owl' so please can the children read at least five times a week so we have the best chance of winning him! This also helps the children with their reading skills and enables them to move between the reading levels.
