Class 2 Reminders:

Children need a water bottle in school every day. This should only have water inside and should be labelled clearly with your child's name.

Please email any queries or messages to the school office:  office@blakedownprimary.worcs.sch.uk your email will be forwarded to me.

Home reading - Please could home reading books be returned to school each Monday, your child will then have the opportunity to select a new book to read for pleasure at home. Each Friday your child will be allocated their Little Wandle book. This is the book which they have already read 3 times at school.

PE for Year 2 is on a Monday afternoon and Wednesday afternoon. Children should come to school in their PE kit these days. Starting from 16th September, we will be going swimming and so children also need to bring their swimming kit and towel with them. 

Homework will be set for each half term. Homework books will be sent out containing the term's activity grid. Each time children complete a piece of homework please hand it in on a Monday. The homework book will be returned on Wednesday.
