A great start to 2025 in Year 2!

Happy New Year! The children in Year 2 have had a great first week back to school. They have started their new project, ‘Healthy Happy Me!’ where they have been starting to learn about Florence Nightingale and Mary Seacole. Over the term, the children will be finding out more about these women and the impact they have had on our history. We explored their images and created our own line drawing sketches of them.

The children have also enjoyed learning about ‘Charlie and the chocolate factory’. We have been inventing our own sweets and as part of our English, we have been writing about the amazing inventing room in the story. In maths, we have been learning about money, learning to make totals in different ways using coins and notes. We have also started learning our 10 times tables, so maybe your child may like to have a go on TTRS and see how many they know.

Thank you for all your continued support with your children’s learning.
