National Curriculum 

These links will help to share with you the objectives that the children will be taught in Year 1 and Year 2. They can help you to support your child at home too.

Handwriting

At Bungay Primary we will be using cursive handwriting when the children are ready to start it.  Through handwriting lessons and early morning work they will practise the cursive form.  There is no rush for them to join their letters but you may like to practise at home too.  Use large resources like chalks, paints and whiteboard pens to learn the shape and flow of the letters.  Once they can write the cursive letters correctly then start to think of writing them smaller.

Phonics 

The following sound mats will demonstrate the sounds that the children should know.  They should know all of Phase 2 – 5 by the end of Year 1.

Spellings

The children should be able to spell common exception words for their year group and are worth practising.  Spelling tests will happen in Phonics lessons and will test how the children apply a particular sound or spelling rule.

Daily Mile 

At Bungay Primary we want to strive to have fit and healthy children who are energised for learning.  As part of our timetable we spend 15 minutes a day outside, running, jogging or walking and breathing in the fresh air.  It is great fun and over 5000 schools in the UK take part.

For more information visit; The Daily Mile UK

PE – Please ensure that your child has a fully named PE kit on their peg ALL week please.  The children have a set day for PE but that doesn’t mean that is the only day they need it.  Our timetable often fluctuates and changes at short notice.

If you would like to contact us you can ring the school office to make an appointment or email dmcgrotty@bungayprimary.co.uk

Many Thanks
