Foundation Stage Two 2019 - 2020

Welcome to our class homepage!

Since the COVID19 outbreak, Rochdale has seen a significant rise in applications for benefits, meaning increased numbers of children are becoming eligible for Benefit-Related Free School Meals. Should you think you may be eligible for free school meals and have not yet claimed, please apply online at:http://www.rochdale.gov.uk/schools-and-education/Pages/free-school-meals.aspx. 

 (Free school meals are currently available at school between 11.30am and 12noon, but will soon be replaced by a weekly £15 supermarket voucher emailed directly to parents/carers.)

Thank you to those of you who attended the Reception Reading Meeting. For those who couldn't attend, the slides that were used have been uploaded for your reference.

There will also be a practical workshop for anyone who would like further advice and demonstration of how we teach reading. This will be a very informal workshop where everyone is welcome and questions are encouraged!

We have also added the video which demonstrates how to pronounce each of the sounds correctly.
