Year 2

Welcome to Year 2

​

I am Mrs Thompson and I am really looking forward to teaching Year 2 this year.  I have been a teacher at Burnside for over 18 years and I really enjoy working here.  At school I am the SENCO and I enjoy working with lots of children throughout the school.  In Year 2 we will be focusing on becoming independent learners, and ensuring we have good basic knowledge of maths and literacy.  

​

I have two young children and at a weekend I spend time with them, either swimming or playing in the park.
