Meet the Teacher
This is my 3rd year of teaching.
I studied at Manchester Metropolitan University.
If I wasn’t a teacher, I would be a dog trainer.
The best part of being a teacher for me is looking back and seeing how far they have come on their learning journey.

Information for Parents
Dear Parent/ Carer,
In Year 2, our PE days will be a Tuesday and Thursday, so please ensure your child’s FULL PE kit is in school. The PE kit can stay in school and be returned over half terms to be washed.
Linked to each topic, our trips for the year will include: a farm visit and seaside trip.
This year, I will be sending a homework book home each half term. The activities will be relevant to our learning topics and your child can choose which activities they complete. This book must be returned every MONDAY for new spellings to be added.
We will have a weekly spelling test (Monday), times tables test (Friday) and we will continue with daily phonics.
This year, it is vital that you continue to read with your child at least 4 times a week. I will be doing a ‘reading raffle’ once a week where the children are entered into a prize draw.
I’m very excited for this year and I can’t wait to be a part of your child’s learning journey!
Thank you,
Miss Hassall
Useful Information
Year 2 children have created some wonderful pieces of homework this half term. Here are just a few examples of what the children have completed from their own interpretation of a homework task! Thank you to parents for facilitating the children’s creativity! Well done children!
In Year 2, we looked at hygiene in PSHE today. Our main “culprit” shook hands with the rest of the class, touched door handles, pencils and tables so that we could see how easily germs are transferred. The children were amazed at how far the germs (glitter) travelled! Then the children followed strict hand washing routines, including a sing along to the theme of baby shark!
