Dragons cause mayhem in Year 2, by Miss Jones
Date: 18th Jan 2022 @ 4:42pm
Dragons have cause mayhem in the year 2 classroom today. The children enjoyed looking for clues to help work out what the dragons were doing in our class during lunchtime.
They were very mischievous, little things!
We used the clues to write sentences using verbs to tell someone else what the dragons had been up to. We also imagined what they would be doing if they were still here!
Ask your child to tell you some of the things those naughty dragons were doing.

Year 2 Owl Experience, by Miss Jones
Date: 9th Nov 2021 @ 3:55pm
This morning the Year 2 children had some surprise visitors waiting for them in the school hall. We we so thrilled to meet Libby and her four owls! Libby taught us about the different owls she brought with her and the owls enjoyed flying in the hall. The children were even brave enought to lie down and have an owl fly right over their heads. We hope you enjoy the photos and short video.
We cannot wait to learn more about owls this half term.

Year 2: Art, by Miss Jones
Date: 12th Sep 2021 @ 5:59pm
This week, Year 2 have started learning all about Surrealism and the artist, Joan Miro. This week we focused on 'The Hunter'. The children looked carefully at this piece, commenting on the shapes and objects they could see. We then looked closer and spotted what we thought could be a human hunter. We made our own versions using pencils and markers, before creating a ombré background. We can't wait to continue exploring many more of Miro's most famous pieces this half term.

Making our troll habitat, by Mrs Marshall
Date: 21st Oct 2020 @ 5:53pm
Year 2 had lots of fun making their troll habitats. They used lolly sticks to form their trip-trappy bridges and foraged in the woodland area to find suitable materials to create their habitats. Lots of the children said that they would like to add more detail to their habitats over half term (acorns, sticks,stones, or even make a little troll to go inside!) so if you would like to send me any pictures of this then please do 😀

Year 2- Fire on the playground, by Mrs Harrison
Date: 29th Nov 2019 @ 3:16pm
What an exciting day in Year 2! We set up our model of Pudding Lane on the school playground. The fire brigade helped us to set the bakery alight. We recreated the windy conditions of 2nd September 1666 and the houses were ablaze! Luckily the children were on hand with the hose to extinguish the fire! We had a wonderful time watching the fire, trying on the fire equipment and sitting in the fire engine. Thank you to Mr Gerrard and the fire brigade for coming to help us.
