Year 2

Look at the skills we have been developing today.  

In STEM week Year 2 looked at the work of the world famous chef Heston Blumenthal. We write character descriptions about him and found out so many interesting things about him. 2M sent some some of their work to his restaurant and guess what???? He read them, this is the email we got from his public

On Friday we were lucky enough to have a visit from Nissan. They brought with them the Leaf electric car. We were able to hear it when it was started and compare it to other cars we have been in. We learnt about the impact the Leaf car has on the environment compared to non electric cars.

We’ve started gymnastics sessions again in year 2 and it is very clear how all the practise since reception class is helping our skills to develop. We are stronger at holding positions, balancing for longer and more stable, better at rolling and our confidence in general gymnastics is better.  

Today we welcomed Miss Monica and Miss Wang to our school for the next two weeks. They will be working in 2Sand 5G. We presented them with home and away food packs. They brought us some amazing gifts too and we have even been learning some Chinese!!

STEM week in year two has been so busy! We have: – made, tested and reviewed shoe box cars – learned about the grips on our shoes with a STEM ambassador called Anne – learned how to program ozobots – learned about the jobs some of our parents do – had an assembly with a female engineer from Nissan –

Year two have enjoyed so many Christmas activities: Christmas dinner, Christmas party, Christmas maths(!), Christmas Nativity, Christmas at the church and much much more!  We’d like to wish you all a merry Christmas and lots of happy holiday fun. From all the staff in year 2.

Meet Our Reading Champions. They have read and reviewed a set of new books from Waterstones. Their reviews will be taken to the bookshop  to be put on display. Next term the Reading Champions will share their books with their year group and in assembly.  

We enjoyed  whole music workshop this morning!

Wow wow wow! Our cooks have been so busy preparing this amazing dinner. Some of the desserts look too good to eat! Look out for some updates later to see your child enjoying their lunch with their friends!
