Great start to Year 2!

What a great start to Year 2! The children have settled well into their new classes and routines, and we are really proud of them all. They are enjoying our new project, ‘Beauty on our doorstep’, where we have been learning about the human and physical features in our local area and even enjoyed a walk around our school looking for some of them. The children have learnt about different materials and their properties, where they have been exploring clay in order to create their own owls by manipulating the clay in different ways.

We have also started out DT unit about sewing. The children have been learning about running stitches and designing their own puppets based on a traditional tale character – can you spot any familiar characters in their designs?

Thank you to everyone who came to our curriculum evening last week and for all your continued support in settling your children into Year 2. If you have any further questions then please contact us on the year group email year2@stmarksce.org.uk
