Dear Year 2 parents & guardians,

 

Welcome to Week 4! It’s been a smooth start to the 2026 school year and we are loving getting to know our new classes.

 

What we’ve been up to in Year 2:

  • Students are settling into their new rooms and classroom routines really well
  • Getting to know about each other through games and activities
  • Recapping on the ENPS C.A.R.E values and what these look and feel like
  • Discussing the ‘group plan’ and practising following this
  • Revisiting the Zones of Regulation
  • Revising our Stage 7 Little Learners phonemes (sounds - oral) and graphemes (letters that represent the sounds - written)
  • Looking at Place Value in maths 
  • Discussing what family life looks like in our homes
