Welcome to Base 7


Welcome to Base 7

 

This Year 2 class is taught by Miss Crook and supported by Mrs Unwin.

On this page, we’ll be celebrating all the wonderful learning and achievements from our year together. You’ll find highlights of our exciting events, proud moments, and the fantastic work we’ve been doing in Base 8. It’s a space full of creativity, curiosity, and adventure!

In our class, we always aim to do our best, showing kindness and respect to everyone. We work hard to follow our school rules and strive to reach our full potential every day.

Autumn Term 2026 – Our topic this term is Neighbourhood Watch!

This Autumn term, we’re diving into our exciting topic, Neighbourhood Watch.

In English this term, we’ll be exploring a rich collection of engaging and imaginative texts, including Billy and the Beast, Wolves, The Sea Saw and Lubna and the Pepples. Through these stories, pupils will journey across different themes—from heartwarming adventures and important friendships. These texts will inspire our creativity and curiosity, helping us to develop key reading skills such as comprehension, inference, and discussion. They will also provide exciting opportunities for writing, as we experiment with storytelling, descriptive language, and recounts based on real and fictional events.

Class Systems

Reading for pleasure!

In year 1 and 2, we place a great emphasis on reading for pleasure and are always finding any opportunity within the school day to share a range of stories and texts to help nurture a love of reading.

We love to hear about the children’s favourite stories and have introduced a reading for pleasure book that the children can share at home. They will change this every Friday.

Individual Reading

Reading of your individual reading book should be completed at least four times per week and recorded with a comment in the reading diary.  Remember you will be entered into the reading raffle if this has been completed and all of your reading will help us in the weekly reading challenge to be the class to complete the most reads in school!!

Homework

We will send homework on a Friday and it needs to be returned by the following Thursday please. This will consist of the weekly spelling focus and a maths focus.

P.E. – Tuesday and Friday

P.E. kits need to be worn every.

The school P.E. kit consists of a red Randlay logo T-shirt/plain red top, black PE shorts/plain black jogging bottoms and a black logo PE hoodie/plain black sweatshirt.
