TEDDY BEAR PICNIC

To celebrate a wonderful term of learning, we have arranged a Teddy Bear Picnic for the Year 2 students! This event will take place on Thursday 9th July 2026.
We will be walking to Cheam Park together. Please arrive at school at the normal time, as we will be departing at 9:30am. We will arrive back in time for normal pick-up arrangements.
The children should wear school uniform as usual; however, as we will be walking and participating activities, they are encouraged to wear trainers or comfortable shoes. Please ensure your child has a sun hat and has had sun cream applied before school.
Lunch will be eaten at the park, you can either provide your child with a packed lunch or if you would like the school to provide a packed lunch please email the office by 19th June 26.
We will need several parent volunteers to help the day run smoothly. We welcome your help for any duration of time—whether you can stay for an hour or the whole day (9:30 am – 2:30 pm), we would love to have you! If you are available, please fill out this google form by Monday 15th June. Please note: students must return to school for normal pick-up and cannot leave from the park.

LOCAL WALK
Thursday 6th November 25
Dear Parents/ Carers,
We are very much looking forward to our Year 2 local walk as part of next half term’s Geography lessons, To celebrate the start of this topic, we will be going on a local walk to Cheam Park Cafe on Thursday 6th November. On the walk we will be looking at the route that we take, as well as spotting key geographical features that may need to be recorded on a map.
At the minute we have had very few parent volunteers and without them we will not be able to take part in this trip. We would be very grateful for any parents who are able to accompany us on this walk. If you are available and would like to accompany us, then please let your class teacher know or email the office.
Please send your child with weather appropriate clothing on the day i.e. a raincoat if it is raining or there is a chance of rain.
If you have any questions at all about this walk, please do not hesitate to speak to one of us.
Thank you for all your help and support this half term.
Miss Breeden and Ms McCallum
