Cats - Foundation 2

Welcome to The Cats!

We are a class of 27 fantastic children!

We have lots of fun and we love to learn. The Cats work hard and we look after each other. We all love coming to school! 

Look at our photos and you will see why we think Pinewood is the best school there is!

The class teacher in the Cats is Miss Guy and she is supported by the amazing teaching assistants: Anne-Marie, Tracy Kershaw, Lisa Smith and Tracy Ridgeway-Rayns who work across F2. Mrs Symmons and Mrs Withnall cover planning and leadership time.
