Our teacher is Miss Armstrong

What is your name? Kitty Armstrong

What class do you teach? I teach Year 2, our class is called Team Rabbit

How long have you worked at Longtown Primary School? This is my first year at Longtown Primary School and my first year as a teacher. I am so excited to start my career at Longtown. 

What would the children be surprised to find out about you? I once went inside the CBBC studios where I met the presenters and Hacker. I also watched them film Newsround from behind the scenes!

What makes a ‘good’ day at Longtown Primary School? Being able to witness children play and have fun with their friends. 

What is the best thing about being a teacher? The best thing about being a teacher is knowing that I can be a supportive person the children can trust and being able to watch their confidence grow. 

What wisdom would you pass on to the children in your class? It is okay to make mistakes as they help us to learn and grow. 

Things to remember:

  • PE Kits should be kept in school so they are always available when needed. They will be sent home during the school holidays for washing. Please make sure all items are clearly labelled with your child’s name.
  • Children should bring a named water bottle to school each day. Bottles can be refilled with water in school throughout the day.

Reading at Home
Listening to your child read and practising their letter sounds together at home will make a real difference to their learning and confidence. Just a little practice each day can go a very long way.
