Our Key Stage 2 children always strive to be the best we can be. We are proud of the progress we make in lessons, and as we grow and learn, we are proud to be becoming good people.
Together, with God's love, we can achieve anything.
We hope you enjoy looking through our class page. It will be updated with photographs and news regularly, and you will find all the curriculum information you need on here.
Reminders and Useful Information
Homework
Children should read, practise their spellings using the handwriting sheet and learn their tables every night.
- Spellings roll on a weekly cycle; they will be issued on a Monday, completed throughout the week and then checked the following Monday. Their test will be on a Monday. Children will then be provided with a new sheet and so on.
- Maths arithmetic homework will be set on Fridays and is to be returned on the following Friday ready to be reviewed in the Maths lesson.
- Half-termly topic homework challenge will be set based on the Knowledge Organisers for that half-term. (See below for more information).
Reading Awards
Reading awards assemblies are held at the end of each half term. To earn a bronze certificate children need to read a minimum of five times each week. Platinum and Diamond Awards are awarded to children who go above and beyond and even read in the holidays! Help your class to win the trophy and read lots at home!
PE
PE lessons take place twice a week (see the table below to find out on which days your class has PE). On PE days the children will be expected to come into school wearing their full school PE uniform (they can wear navy jogging bottoms over the top of their shorts to keep them warm when outside at break and lunchtimes). The children regularly do the mile on our track around the field.

Petty Pool 2025
LKS2 had a wonderful overnight stay at Petty Pool Outdoor Education Centre. The children enjoyed partaking in activities such as rock climbing, zip lining, bush craft and craft stacking. They even got to go on a night walk through the forest and enjoy marshmallows round the campfire! They demonstrated great team work and improved resilience to challenges whilst away. We're very proud of them all!
Half-Termly Homework Challenges
Each half term your child will recieve a Knowledge Organiser on which to base their homework challenge. This is to be ongoing for the duration of each half term.
Online Communications - Teams
Please see below 'Quick Guide to MS Teams for Parents' guide as to how your children can set up themselves ready to interact with their teacher
Reading Plus Online
Do continue to encourage the use of this at home. It is designed to improve reading fluency and comprehension as well as developing inference skills (which are vital skills for the SATs). Children can access this at home using their own log-in and it will contribute towards a reading award as long as it is signed by an adult in school planners. We do expect one of the children's weekly reads at home to be a reading plus session.
