Year 4 loved investigating angles within shapes this morning. They looked at a range of shapes, and thought about types of interior angles. They then scanned the QR codes on their shape cards to check if they were correct.

We have had a great first half term settling into our new Preschool class! We have made so many new friends and are building our confidence to try lots of new things. This half term we have been learning about 'Ourselves' and 'Our Families' and have loved sharing with our teachers about our favourite things and what we love to do with our family. We have learnt that families come in all shapes and sizes but are all special!

Some of the children in Year 2 have been hard at work with their homework. The children have loved sharing what work they have been completing from the Autumn homework sheet.

F2 - Autumn, by Miss Kealey
Date: 14th Oct 2022 @ 4:17pm
This week in F2, the children have been learning all about Autumn! We have had so much fun exploring autumnal items and talking about the changes we can see and feel in the world around us. The children enjoyed learning about hibernation and the animals that have a big sleep during the colder months. Today, we spent time in the playground collecting items to build a hibernation habitat for our class hedgehog, Henry. The children worked together to build a home to keep Henry warm and safe. Great team work F2, well done!
Y2 Trip to The Williamson Art Gallery, by Mrs Schultz
Date: 13th Oct 2022 @ 4:38pm
We had a lovely afternoon visiting The Williamson Art Gallery. The children explored a few of the galleries, completing a treasure hunt of artifacts from different collections. We then focused on the Della Robbia pottery collection, founded by Harold Rathbone in Birkenhead. We listened to the history of the collection and learned some interesting facts about some of the Potters (one of which was able to paint and decorate pottery without any limbs). We looked at the colours, patterns, shapes and designs of the collection and hope to use them as inspiration for our pottery painting tomorrow. Stay tuned for the results!

What a great start we've had to our homework this year. The children have become very interested in King Charles III, and have been researching his family tree. All the children could tell me facts about him and could talk about his family with confidence. Well done Year 2!
Y2 Come and Share- Thursday 6th October, by Mrs Schultz
Date: 7th Oct 2022 @ 11:25pm
In Year 2, we were extremely lucky to have recruited some parent (and grand parent!) helpers for our 'Come and Share' pottery making. We had a lovely morning making plates, bowls and pots in the style of the Della Robbia collection- originally founded in a pottery factory in Birkenhead. Everyone worked so hard and the results were amazing! We can't wait to paint our masterpieces. Thank you so much to everyone who came to support the children, it was lovely to welcome you all to our classrooms.

PSHE- Values, money and me, by Mrs Schultz
Date: 29th Sep 2022 @ 11:53pm
In Year 2 we have been exploring objects in our own life. Last week, the children (and teachers!) brought in an object from home, such as a photo or toy that held a sentimental value. We talked about how the emotional value attached to these objects was much more important than what the item costs. The children responded very well and must have remembered what they had learned as they wouldn't even sell their objects to their teachers for £100! Their favourite sentence of the day was, 'It's too precious to me'. Well done Year 2!

Year 2 'End of Infants' Summer Fun Day!, by Mrs Schultz
Date: 20th Jul 2022 @ 1:27am
Year 2 had the best day yesterday! We spent the first part of the morning making dens, building towers, chalk writing, bubble blowing, water painting, game playing and much, much more! We then went inside to play some games and relax in the shade. After lunch, the children had the chance to 'splat' a teacher with a water balloon! They looked far too excited for this part! We then had a mindfulness afternoon with a cooling foot spa! We finished off the day with an ice cream parlour! What a fantastic way to end the best year!
