Departure Days!

To get our learning off to an exciting start we have enjoyed some departure days in Class 2. 

In Science we explored Dark as the absence of light by using dark boxes. It was impossible to see what Mrs Ward had hidden in the boxes until we were allowed to put a little hole in to let in some light. 

Summer Term 2024

Please explore our Curriculum Overview to see what exciting things we are learning each half term. You can also acces Class 2's homework project for this half term as well as the key vocabulary that the children will be using in their learning.

The whole school were so lucky to have a visit from William, a local beekeeper. This has been a wonderful addition to our curriculum, supporting our learning in science about plants and pollination as well as linking beautifully to our school Summer production of The Bee Muscial!

Here are some photos from Class 2's session finding out about bees.

Across the school we have been learning about other faiths through art. In Class 2 we have been learning about Sikhism. We learnt about the life of Guru Nanek and the lessons he taught Sikhs about how to live. We created this beautiful display of our work.

Spring Term 2024

New School Rules!

In school we have worked with the children to develop some new school rules. The children in Class 2 and 3 worked together to create fun board games to help the younger children in school learn what they might look like in action. They had lots of fun trying them out. 

History News!

In history we are finding out how lives have changed. We are particulaly focussing on the Victorian Era. We used a range of sources to find out how the lives of rich and poor people were different during this time. We created some 'news bulletins' to show what we had found out. We hope you enjoy them and learn some interesting facts!

This week we have also looked at the recipe for a soup that poor people in Victorian times might have eaten. We prepared it together and were surprised by how delicious it was!

In our RE lessons we have been learning about what different religions believe about God and how they show their faith. 

As part of this we thought about the big question, "Where is God?"

We recorded our thoughts through poetry and artwork. It has made a lovely display in our classroom.

In Design and Technology Class 2 have been exploring wheels and axles. As part of this work we have designed and built cars and are now busy on our large scale project- A moving ferris wheel!!

Here are some pictures of our work so far. We will keep you updated!!

Here are some of the exciting things we have been doing this term.

In Design and Technology we have been learning about structures and stability. We researched what gave structures stability and tested out a range of ideas. We then used what we had found out to help us design and build our own chairs. The brief was it needed to be strong enough to hold a small teddy, (and could only be made from paper!) but we were so good at it we ended up testing it with weights. Some held 700g!

We had a wonderful Hindu experience day! Sunita came into our school to share with us the story of Diwali, help us create some wonderful rangoli patterns and to teach us some amazing dance moves. It was a great day, lots of fun and we learned a lot! 

In RE we have been thinking about how personal reflection can help us. We created wax lillies with our reflections on and floated them on the pool. Mrs Ward was very impressed with the grown- up way we approached this. Our reflections included our hopes for the futures, our worries and things we are thankful for. Class 2 showed they are all excellent listeners and value each others thoughts and ideas. They showed respect and kindness to each other.

What a lovely way to kick start our Easter holidays! Jack brought in his pet lamb that he has been helping to look after at home.

PE

We have started developing our gymnastic skills with Mr Whitford from Sporting Influence. We began by working on the extension of our limbs during travelling and making shapes. We then moved onto adding the shapes into jumps. Mr Whitford was really impressed with our focussed working and could see improvements in our control and extension even after a short time. We are looking forward to building up to using the large wall climbing equipment.

Mrs Ward was very impressed with the grown- up way we approached this. Our reflections included our hopes for the futures, our worries and things we are thankful for. Class 2 showed they are all excellent listeners and value each others thoughts and ideas. They showed respect and kindness to each other.

What a lovely way to kick start our Easter holidays! Jack brought in his pet lamb that he has been helping to look after at home.

PE

We have started developing our gymnastic skills with Mr Whitford from Sporting Influence. We began by working on the extension of our limbs during travelling and making shapes. We then moved onto adding the shapes into jumps. Mr Whitford was really impressed with our focussed working and could see improvements in our control and extension even after a short time. We are looking forward to building up to using the large wall climbing equipment. 

In History our departure day saw us drawing and then making clay scarab beetles and designing Egyptian masks.

Departure Days!

To get our learning off to an exciting start we have enjoyed some departure days in Class 2. 

In Science we explored Dark as the absence of light by using dark boxes. It was impossible to see what Mrs Ward had hidden in the boxes until we were allowed to put a little hole in to let in some light.

The whole school were so lucky to have a visit from William, a local beekeeper. This has been a wonderful addition to our curriculum, supporting our learning in science about plants and pollination as well as linking beautifully to our school Summer production of The Bee Muscial!

Here are some photos from Class 2's session finding out about bees.

Across the school we have been learning about other faiths through art. In Class 2 we have been learning about Sikhism. We learnt about the life of Guru Nanek and the lessons he taught Sikhs about how to live. We created this beautiful display of our work.

Spring Term 2024

New School Rules!

In school we have worked with the children to develop some new school rules. The children in Class 2 and 3 worked together to create fun board games to help the younger children in school learn what they might look like in action. They had lots of fun trying them out. 

History News!

In history we are finding out how lives have changed. We are particulaly focussing on the Victorian Era. We used a range of sources to find out how the lives of rich and poor people were different during this time. We created some 'news bulletins' to show what we had found out. We hope you enjoy them and learn some interesting facts!

This week we have also looked at the recipe for a soup that poor people in Victorian times might have eaten. We prepared it together and were surprised by how delicious it was!

In our RE lessons we have been learning about what different religions believe about God and how they show their faith. 

As part of this we thought about the big question, "Where is God?"

We recorded our thoughts through poetry and artwork. It has made a lovely display in our classroom.

In Design and Technology Class 2 have been exploring wheels and axles. As part of this work we have designed and built cars and are now busy on our large scale project- A moving ferris wheel!!

Here are some pictures of our work so far. We will keep you updated!!

Here are some of the exciting things we have been doing this term.

In Design and Technology we have been learning about structures and stability. We researched what gave structures stability and tested out a range of ideas. We then used what we had found out to help us design and build our own chairs. The brief was it needed to be strong enough to hold a small teddy, (and could only be made from paper!) but we were so good at it we ended up testing it with weights. Some held 700g!

We had a wonderful Hindu experience day! Sunita came into our school to share with us the story of Diwali, help us create some wonderful rangoli patterns and to teach us some amazing dance moves. It was a great day, lots of fun and we learned a lot! 

In RE we have been thinking about how personal reflection can help us. We created wax lillies with our reflections on and floated them on the pool. Mrs Ward was very impressed with the grown- up way we approached this. Our reflections included our hopes for the futures, our worries and things we are thankful for. Class 2 showed they are all excellent listeners and value each others thoughts and ideas. They showed respect and kindness to each other.
