Useful information

Reminders for parents

Gates open at 8.40am and children need to be in class by 8.50am. The school day ends at 3.15pm.

PE days for this half term are Tuesday and Friday. Please be aware that this will change in the future. Their PE kit can stay at school all half-term and be sent home at the end of each to be washed.

Please ensure your child comes to school with:

A named water bottle
A coat or jacket regardless of the weather
Wellies (these will be kept at school in a shed outside of the classroom for OPAL play)

Last year, many children misplaced some of their uniform. To help us get this back to you, please label all items clearly with your child's name.

Reading

Group reading books will be sent home weekly. Alongside these books, year 2 children are responsible for choosing their own ‘shared reading’ which can be changed whenever these books have been read at home or if the children just fancy a change! Please record any time you read with your child in their blue reading record book and ensure plastic reading folders are in school every day.

Phonics

As always, phonics lessons take place daily. Children are split into different groups based on their phonics needs. Follow the link to find more information and helpful videos to help you support your child with their phonics at home. https://coveinfantschool.co.uk/phonics-and-early-reading/ .

Once your child has completed Little Wandle phonics, they will have daily spelling sessions. Please click on the document below to access all of the spellings that are taught throughout the units.
