P.E Lessons

Year 2's PE days will be Monday and Wednesday. The children will need to come to school wearing their Norwood PE kit on these days - plain white t shirt, navy shorts, joggers or leggings, navy plain sweatshirt or hoodie and black trainers. Your child will also need a pair of black pumps, left in school, to change into for indoor P.E lessons and can leave an extra pair of trainers in school to change into for the Golden Mile if they wish.

Homework

At Norwood, we believe reading is essential for the foundations of learning. Therefore we ask that parents read with their child a minimum of 3 x per week. Any additional reading will always benefit and support your child's learning further. Reading diaries must be signed each week, indicating that your child has read 3 times at home. Your child must then return their book and reading diary each week, on the day written on the back of the diary.

We would also love for you to support your child's mathematical development, by accesing Numbots each week and practising counting and number recognition with your child at home.
