We have two Year 2 classes- Miss Glass and Miss Fry

   Miss Glass-Sparrows                Miss Fry- Doves

Information for Term 2:

It is important that every day your child brings; a coat, water bottle and their reading folder. Please make sure your child brings minimal possessions into school.

Homework

When the children have PE, they should continue to wear their Bitham Brook PE kit into school with the school jumper over the top (if weather conditions require a jumper).  Please note the Bitham Brook PE kit is a plain white t-shirt and black shorts/leggings/tracksuit with daps/trainers.  Other sports clothing is not acceptable as it is important that, as a school, we have pride in our appearance.
