To end our incredible 'Land Ahoy' topic, the children had to work together to follow a map and solve the clues which led them to the treasure which had been left by Captain Black Beard!  Thankfully, all of the treasure was located and the children were able to cool off with a much needed ice pop! …

Wow, what another busy week Year 2 have had!  The children have been learning about position and direction in maths and have been following instructions to move forwards, backwards, left and right.  We worked on the playground using the giant grid to help us think about how we could move to…

The Year 2 children explored the woodland area and enjoyed building their own dens.  The children worked together and had fun toasting marshmallows on the camp fire.  Thank you Mr Murton for helping us during our Golden Time session.

We've had a messy time creating colourful pictures using marbles.  After putting the marbles into paint, the children have then rolled them across their page to produce these rather abstract masterpieces!  Well done everyone, we certainly had fun letting the marble do all of the hard…

As part of our ICT curriculum this half term, we have been using ipads to take our own photographs.  We have had fun capturing everyday objects as well as taking pictures of each other.  This week, the children used a familiar app to edit their snaps by adding colours, images and text.  I wonder…
