Butterflies 2021 - 2022

Mrs Gant

Mrs Whittle

Welcome to Year 2!

Mrs Gant, Mr Bester and Mrs Whittle want to send a warm welcome to all our little Butterflies as they begin the last leg of their infant journey. This year we want to work hard but have lots of fun along the way. Throughout the year our little Butterflies will spread their wings and fly, ready to become a junior.

In Butterflies, PE is on Monday and Tuesday. Full PE to be worn to school. No jewellery is to be worn, earrings to be removed, or taped (child's own tape and form signed) if they can't be removed. Girl's - hair tied back.

Homework will be set on a Monday and will need to be completed by the following Monday. Please write which homework they have completed in your child’s yellow homework book. Spelling practise sheets will also be handed in on a Monday and your child will be tested on Monday. Please can all homework be completed in the pencil I have provided, not coloured pencil, pen or felt pen.

Please help your child to read at least 3 times a week. Their reading record needs to be signed by an adult and the page they are up to written in on the day they read, even if they are on free choice. Books will be checked daily.

Butterflies' class value is Courage.

Butterflies' class novel is The Lion, the Witch and the Wardrobe.

Many thanks,

Mrs Gant.
