F2 - Little Red Hen
Today we received a letter from Little Red Hen. She had lost her loaf of bread and needed our help to find it! The children enjoyed using their map reading skills to locate the missing loaf of bread for Little Red Hen. They worked on their team work skills to recount the story to help them follow the map. They focused on directional language and developing their understanding of story structure.
Well done F2!
F2 - Friendship and Forgiveness - Mrs McLaren's Class, by Mrs Harris

F2
On Friday our children brought in their teddies. We read a story about a teddy being unkind at a picnic and how his friends forgave him. We then went off and worked together. We spoke about how we show forgiveness to others and how we share and show kindness,
The children had so much fun and were excellent at talking about their feelings. Our teddies had so much fun too and were very well behaved all day.
We also made sandwiches during cooking with the help of our teachers.
We chose the toppings we wanted, buttered our bread and cut them.
Farm day, by Mrs McLaren
Date: 23rd Mar 2023 @ 6:04pm
This week the children enjoyed taking part in a farm experience. We started our day by milking some cows, collecting eggs in the egg run, planting seeds, washing machinery and feeding and looking after our pony.
The children really enjoyed working together and had so much fun exploring the courtyard farm area. The children built a pen for the pony so that it wouldn't escape. They also transported fruit and vegetables to the kitchen where they cooked fresh meals for the farm workers. We all enjoyed using our imagination. It was so much fun working together just like the animals in our story Farmer Duck.

F2M - Enterprise Day
Date: 7th Mar 2023
We have been working hard on our cards for enterprise day.
We used paint and stencils to print patterns onto our cards. We spoke about how important it was to do things for others. We made a card and cake stall for the children and they chose a card to take home.
With the rest of the cards we will be sending them to various care homes around wirral to make the people in the care home smile ?
Excellent work F2!
F2K - Enterprise Day, by Miss Kealey
Date: 7th Mar 2023 @ 5:59pm
F2K have enjoyed taking part in Enterprise Day. We decided to create something that would make others smile, whilst also raising some money for our class. The children decided on making cards! They worked as a team to create a range of different card designs. The children then thought about what they would like to spend the money they raise on and created a class spider diagram to show their ideas!
Today we opened our ‘F2 Card and Cake Shop’ - the children enjoyed looking at each other’s designs and choosing a card to take home to their families. We had lots of cards left over so we’ve decided to give these to local care home to share a smile with our wider community.
Excellent work F2!

What a lovely morning we have had in F2! We loved inviting our parents/carers into school for a ‘Come and Share’ session. We had a great time making poppy wreaths in preparation for Remembrance Day.

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.

F2 , by Miss Kealey
Date: 8th Jul 2022 @ 6:10pm
During the Summer Term, F2 have been learning all about the ocean - from under the sea to the seashore! They have learnt some interesting facts about sea creatures, their homes and how to keep safe at the seaside.
We ended our topic by turning our playground into our very own beach! The children thoroughly enjoyed spending the afternoon all together as a year group joining in with all the different seaside activities.
We made sandcastles, relaxed in deck chairs, played beach volley ball, made out own lifeguard station/huts, build light houses and paddled in the ‘sea’ whilst our 4 super lifeguards (also known as the F2 team) watched over us to make sure we were having fun and staying safe.
We ended our afternoon by sharing our favourite parts of the topic whilst enjoying an ice -cream and keeping cool in the shade.
What a brilliant afternoon to add to our fantastic year in F2!
