Year 2
Transition Letter
Week 13 - w/c 06.07.2020
So we are in the final count down of Year 2. How can this be? This year has been a wonderful one teaching you all both at school and remotely. I cannot wait to see you (if you can make it) on the transition day. Both myself and Miss Smith will be there to see you 
I hope you enjoy this weeks home learning, the Art activity looks fun, but I have a feeling the sunshine will not be out so we will have to try plan B!
If you need anything, you can phone me at school or email the office.
Have fun, take care and stay alert!

Today was 'Safer Internet Day' so we have learnt how to keep our identity safe by keeping our personal details private.
LEADER IN ME
On a daily basis, the children try to demonstrate our core values within school. As we aim to practise them so often, they become good habits that we can use not only in school but also at home too.
- Habit 1: Be Proactive (You’re in Charge)
- Habit 2: Begin With the End in Mind (Have a Plan)
- Habit 3: Put First Things First (Work First, Then Play)
- Habit 4: Think Win-Win (Everyone Can Win)
- Habit 5: Seek First to Understand, Then to Be Understood(Listen Before You Talk)
- Habit 6: Synergise (Together Is Better)
- Habit 7: Sharpen the Saw (Balance Feels Best)
Growth Mindset
We are continuing to use Growth Mindset to encourage resilience and perseverance for all our children to support and further their learning. Our Collective Worship this term will support this by focussing on mental wellbeing, healthy life-style and positive relationships which links our seventh value of Sharpen the Saw.
