Reading books are changed on Mondays. The reading folder is needed in school every day. Thank you.
Please continue to read every night as this underpins so much learning in Year 2. For every consecutive 14 days of reading the children will receive 10 house points and see their face on the ‘Reading Challenge Wall of Fame’. Well done to the children who completed the challenge over the holidays and this week- 10 house points each! Please record when you read with your child in their reading diaries so we can track their progress and see who has completed the challenge this term!
Thank you for your on-going support,
