Year 2
Our Class Saint - St Peter
St Peter, originally named Simon, was one of Jesus' 12 disciples. He was an important member of God's family because he was the first Christian Pope. Jesus named him Peter because it means 'the rock' - he was the strong foundation that the Church was founded upon. He often holds keys that represent the keys to the Kingdom of Heaven that Jesus trusted him with.

Take a look at what we've been up to!
On Safer Internet Day we learnt about how to safely use AI voice assistants (like 'Alexa') and compared the jobs of humans with the jobs of AI.
We celebrated Children's Mental Health Week by dressing up in yellow and creating 'my place' maps with all of the things that make us feel safe and happy.
Number Day 2026! We created 2D and 3D shapes using sticks, straws and playdough. We also read the story of Milo's Money and discussed how best we can save/spend our money.
What super sewing skills from Year 2! The children designed and sewed their own felt pouches, adding decorations and even threading their own needles. They showed resilience and perseverance for this tricky task. Well done, everyone!
We collected lots of non-perishable donations for Father Hudson's Caritas during their 'Reverse Advent Calendar' campaign.
We performed our Christmas Nativity performance alongside Year 1 - The Angel Express!
Our talented Year 2 artists have been channelling their inner Vincent Van Gogh! They re-created Starry Night using bold, expressive brushstrokes - just like the famous artist himself. The results are truly out of this world! #CreativeLearners #ArtInAction #StarryNight
Year 2 received 'Harmony Bear' for each being a HERO (Here, Everyday, Ready & On Time) and having excellent attendance. Well done, everyone!

History in Flames!
This term, we brought the past to life when learning about the Great Fire of London and how Samuel Pepys' diary changed modern fire safety. We also visited Ford Green Hall to learn about life in the Tudor period.

Climate Explorers!
Year 2 have been incredibly lucky to receive a special video from local explorer Levison Wood to mark the first milestone of their 'Climate Explorers' vehicle journey. Although he couldn't join us in school as he is currently exploring South America, Levison took time to answer the children's questions while in Peru, on the edge of the Amazon Rainforest!
We are so grateful for his time and inspiration - the children were fascinated and truly inspired by a real-life explorer.
