I’m Mrs Phillips and I have been teaching at Northway since 2008.   I teach Year old 2 along with the support of Mrs Ward.  .As well as teaching, I am also responsible for English across the school along with Mrs Harrison.  I love working at Northway as both the children and the staff work incredibly hard and the school has a huge team-work ethos which runs throughout the school. 

Year 2 PE

PE lessons will usually take place on a Wednesday but please make sure your PE kit is in school at the beginning of every half term and stays in school. ALL pieces of clothing, including school uniform and shoes MUST be named. 

Food and drink

Every child should have a water bottle, containing only water (no juice or flavoured water etc.), that they can access at any time during the day. This bottle should be in addition to a lunch time drink, if they are on packed lunches.

Your child may bring a nut free healthy snack for morning play. Please ensure that the snack is in their book bag so that they do not have to find it in their lunch bags.

Healthy snack

• Fruit
• Bread/toast

Infants also have access to fruit provided by the school.

We have children with anaphylaxis, a life-threatening condition that is caused by a severe allergic reaction to nuts. We ask you to help us protect these children by sending snacks or items for packed lunch for your child that do not contain nuts. Thank you for your cooperation with this; it is very much appreciated by the families of the children. 

Home Learning

Inside your child's home reading diary is the username and password for them to access the resources below. These are useful sites for completing maths and English activities and to support learning at home. Please read regularly (at least three times per week) with your child and record their reading in their reading diary.
