Dear Parents/Carers,
You have found our new year two blog space. In this space we will be posting important information, relevant news updates and curriculum guidance. The purpose of this blog is to provide you with an interactive way of communicating with our year group team. If this blog is to be successful, it requires consistent participation and involvement from you. Its your blog, your opportunity to communicate and comment on events happening throughout your child's time in year two.This blog will be updated every Wednesday evening. But please feel free to add posts yourself, at any time. We look forward to developing this interaction throughout the year, however, if you do have a personal matter regarding your child please do not hesitate to contact your class teacher in person. It is not the intention of this blog to replace the all important home school relationship, but to add an extra dimension to this.We look forward to reading your comments.
