Welcome to Year 2 2021/2022
Welcome back to a new school year! We hope you all enjoyed the summer break. We are excited to welcome the children back to school and are all looking forward to all of the fantastic learning that will take place this year. This half term we will be reading The Lonely Beast in English and finding out about Mary Seacole and Edith Cavell in History. In Science we will be learning about habitats.

- Hello Yellow Day08Oct2021
Hello Yellow Day 2021 On 8th October, help spread the word that whatever you're going through, you're not alone with your mental health, by wearing something yellow and donating £2 to YoungMinds. Join us! Its normal to have ups and downs - and this year might have felt a little more down than up. We've all felt the stress of lockdown, worries about the impact on our families and uncertainty about the future. But it's the little things that have got us through it - the morning walks, singing in the shower, the perfect cuppa or the heart to heart when you were at your wits end. Things can get better. Saying #HelloYellow this World Mental Health Day is a little thing we can do to make a BIG difference to young peoples' mental health. Because a little yellow goes a long way:) You can donate via: https://www.justgiving.com/fundraising/hy2021-107455?utm_campaign=lc_frp_share_transaction_transactional_--_page_launched_--_campaign&utm_content=ddee7979-8dd3-40fd-8e76-d7d96abf8e78&utm_medium=email&utm_source=postoffice&utm_term=1631880144939
