Year 2 had lots of fun spending time outside. They spent time searching for insects and then played with the different equipment. The children took it in turns to be the photographer, these are some of their photos!
Year 2 loved dressing up for their WW2 day. They enjoyed listening to wartime music, making sandwiches and scones, designing medals and celebrating with a street party!
We had so much fun on our school trip. We started the day by walking through Norwich to St Peter Mancroft Church to visit the Gaia exhibition. We were amazed by how big Gaia was! We managed to spot and name some of the continents, we thought about how the earth looks from space and we also talked about ways we can look after our planet.
After St Peter Mancroft, we walked back to the Cathedral for lunch. Then we were very excited to go into the Cathedral to visit Dippy the dinosaur. We all had a fantastic day.
Thank you to everyone who was able to attend our phonics workshop. The children all had a lovely time and it was great to see so many of you there.

For our Wilderness Explorer theme, the children have learnt all about what a plant needs to grow and survive. They have planted their own seeds for beans and will need to take good care of these over the coming weeks whilst observing how they grow. The children will be keeping a plant diary to record the changes they notice in their plant as well as to regularly measure and compare the height.
Topaz class have really enjoyed meeting their class pet Howard! They have been so excited to learn how to look after and take care of him.
