Welcome to Year 2 2021/2022!

This year is going to be really exciting and we are glad to have the children back at school. Even though some things might be a little different, we will all work together to keep each other safe while learning and having fun. 

The Year 2 teacher is Miss Ashton-Scott and the teaching assistant is Mrs Dealey. Mrs Pateman will teach the class every Wednesday afternoon.
