Welcome to Swallow Class!

Mr Thompson, Miss Samphier and Miss Russell

Autumn 1 

WELCOME BACK my new Year 2 children! This half term we will be learning all about 'The Day the Crayons Quit' in our English lessons. Within maths we will be thinking about number and place value. Please practice on times table rockstars each day and don't forget to read!  

Please continue to support your child with reading 1:1 at home each day! This is vital to ensuring that they do not fall behind. Seesaw homework will be sent out each Monday to be completed over the week. 

If you need to contact me regarding online learning please email:

Best wishes 

Mr Thompson
