A big THANK YOU to all Year 2 parents for joining class Dojo. This will enable us to communicate and share work in class and set homework - If you have not yet joined our commuinty please check your email and accept our link.
If you wish to pass on a quick message at the beginning or end of the day, please speak to a member of Year 2 staff at the classroom door. Please be aware, staff are busy ensuring the safety of the children coming in or leaving the classroom first, so you may need to be patient and wait till this is completed.
If you wish to speak at length with the class teacher an appointment will need to be made through the school office or via Class Dojo, where an appropriate time will be arrange to suit everyone.
If you have any suggestions as to what would be appropriate for me to add to the class web page, which will help our class community, please let me know via Class Dojo, I am happy to consider any suggestions.
Thank you for you continued support and cooperation,-
Regards
Miss Dillon
