Autumn Term 2025

Our topic for this term is 'Location, Location, Location'. During the topic you will explore the history and geography of Arnold and the local area. As part of our Science curriculum, we will be investigating 'The Skeleton, Digestion and Teeth'. Our knowledge organisers below contain all of the facts that we expect children to retain from these units of work and also all of the key vocabulary. 

Useful Information for 2C

• Drop off time: 8:50am                       Collection time: 3:30pm

This is what you need to bring to school every day:

Tuck

This year, tuck offered is toast. It costs 25p per slice. It can be ordered in advance. Please speak to the office if you are unsure about how you can order this. 

PE

P.E for 2C  is on a Tuesday afternoon and Friday morning. Please can you ensure your child has a suitable outdoor kit and shoes in school as PE will take place outside, either on the field or the MUGA.  Please make sure ALL P.E kit is labelled and studded earrings are either removed or tape is brought in to cover earrings safely. On Tuesday's children can come into school wearing their PE kit. 

Reading at home

Please read at home with your child at least 3 times a week- it really makes a difference and three weekly reads will be rewarded with a square marked off on your child's ‘reading pin’ challenge in their reading diary.

Spelling

Children will work on spellings during lessons and there will no longer be a weekly test.

Times tables

Each week, children will take part in a multiplication maths challenge. Across the school, the children work on a progressive system which involves practising old times tables as well as introducing new ones. The children will begin on Bronze, and once they score full marks on all 40 questions involving multiplication and division, they will move onto Silver, and so on.  Please see the attachments below to see the structure of the times tables tests your child will be learning. 

Internet Safety

During computing lessons, children learn about how to stay safe whilst using the internet and the SMART rules are displayed in the classroom. We all know that the internet is a fantastic resource but it also poses many dangers which children need to protect themselves against. This website is great for helping all of us educate ourselves about this, take a look at it at home.
