Our Book Pen Pal - Lou Treleaven

We are very lucky to have the wonderful children's author Lou Treleaven as our Book Pen Pal in Year 2 this year. Lou writes early readers, picture books and chapter books - lots of which are fantastic for Year 2 to read! She will be writing to us over the course of the year with lots of book recommendations to inspire the children and also to tell us all about what it is like to be a published author. We will also have the chance to write back to her with our recommendations and any questions we have.

Other Information

PE - our days for PE are Mondays and Fridays. Please could all children come dressed in their PE kit on these days.

Reading - children are expected to have their reading diaries in school every day as we will be completing individual reading as much as possible in school. Please read at home at least 3x per week and fill in your child's reading diary. 

Homework - children in Y2 will get weekly homework which will be handed out and collected every Tuesday. Spellings and phonics (for some) will also be part of your child's homework and these will also be collected and handed out on a Tuesday.

Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions. My email is csmith2@gorseybrigg.derbyshire.sch.uk
