Happy faces in 2R��

On Thursday 20th June, we had a ‘Fun Day’ for all children, to continue the celebration of our ‘Outstanding’ Ofsted result earlier in the year. We had lots of surprise activities throughout the day! These included Dinos Teach Rex, Dino Puppets, Magic Bubbles, Bouncy Castles & Slides and lots of other creative activities in class!

Year 2's History Trip!

Year 2 had a fantastic experience at Staircase House in Stockport! In the morning, we learnt all about the Great Fire of London, where the children took on roles and dressed up as historical characters. In the afternoon, we delved into the world of 17th century firearms and the children were able to design their own! We also learnt about historical construction techniques and created our own wattle and daub panel.
