Welcome to the Year Two Notice Board
Poetry Day – On Thursday 2nd October Belmont will be celebrating National Poetry Day. We will be looking at, reading, sharing and writing some poems throughout the week. If your child has a favourite poem they wish to share in class then they can bring it in and read it together.
Home School Partnership 2025 – Thank you to those who attended our Home School Partnership Evening. We have uploaded the slides to the class Google Classroom.
PASSWORD Log in sheets – New log in sheets have been provided so please use the up to date copy. Most are the same as before but some log in passwords/username have to change each year so please note that you have a new Little Wandle eCollins log in for reading books and a new Discovery QR code.
Books including sharing books, Little Wandle (physical and eCollins), homework books and library books have all been given out today so please check your child’s bag. Please return these every Thursday morning.
We are going to be setting homework and changing books on Thursdays in Year 2. We will see how this works going forward as it is different to the arrangements last year.
Please except the invitation to your child’s class via Google Classroom and check this noticeboard regularly.

Drop-off information – Class teachers will collect their classes from the playground at 8:55 AM. When the bell rings, please guide your child to their class sign near the blue gate. To support a smooth transition into school, encourage your child to join their class line and walk in independently with their peers.
- Please note: Year 2 children should wait in the playground until 8:55 AM. They do not enter the building early like KS2 students, unless it is raining.
Pick up information – At the end of the day, Year 1 children can be collected from the area near the climbing frame at the far end of the playground. Please wait for the teacher to dismiss your child, as they have been asked to stay with their class until called.
Water Bottles – Please ensure that your child brings a named water bottle to school with them each day so that they can hydrate regularly throughout the day.
Playtime Snacks – If your child is bringing a snack in for playtime, please ensure that it is a small/well portioned, healthy snack that can be eaten within a short space of time. No sweets, biscuits or food containing nuts or traces of nuts should be brought in.
