Year 2 Newsletter 30.10.26


We are very excited for Sports Day on Wednesday 4th November! Please make sure your child arrives at school wearing their PE kit and comfortable trainers, with their water bottle. Please arrive promptly so the children have time to complete their morning routines together. Once you have dropped off your child, please head straight to the Sports Hall and wait for us there. We can’t wait to see you cheering us on! 


A note from Mrs McCormack (Primary Principal):

30 October 2026

It seems a long time since I last wrote a Principal’s Note, with half term followed quickly by our two staff CPL days. It is lovely to have Patana Primary back in the full flow of things again.

A highlight for me this week was joining a Year 1 learning walk with some of our new staff, looking at great practice across the year group. I particularly enjoyed hearing the children tell me all about their Kenyan village role play, and everything they had learnt through such an immersive experience which will be captured in their new writing unit.


Next week, I am looking forward to KS1 Sports Day. Have a lovely weekend.

Sarah McCormack

A polite reminder that we ask parents that are on site to use the PTG room when visiting site. Non-staff members should not be spending time in children's play spaces during the school day. Thanks for your support.

Uniform Reminder – School Shoes

Competition time


Happy birthday to Quinn (2G); Jylyn (2F); Han and Markus in 2K; Ashley (2G)

A huge happy birthday to all the children that celebrated in half term break and in week 1 of Term 1A. 

We cannot give out party bags or gifts - please keep these for any sort of celebration that you do out of school.

If you would like to send in some birthday treats for your child to share with their class, please arrange a day with your child's class teacher. We will only be able to manage individual items like brownies, doughnuts, or cupcakes.

Please remember we are a nut-free Primary School and also check with the class teacher for any other dietary requirements of the class.

In the Community

International Day

Nut Free Primary School

For some children, any exposure to nuts is potentially very dangerous and can be life threatening.

We do not allow any nuts to be brought into Primary. This includes snacks on school transport, birthday treats and food items brought in for any other special days.

Some treats, such as macarons contain hidden nuts. Please check the ingredients before sending into school. If snacks or birthday treats are found to contain nuts, we will contact you and either dispose of the food safely or ask you to collect and take back home.
