Year 2 went for a Peel Park, to look at the changes that occur between the seasons. The children discovered that the  leaves begin to change colour and fall off the trees. That some trees remain evergreen throughout the year.

Yesterday a  new member of Year 2 was discovered in the Library. He had left clues in our classroom, we followed these clues which lead to footprints outside our classrrom. These lead to the stranger, reading a book in the Library, looking for a new home for Christmas. We discovered he had no name, so after consulting everyone we have named him Star. He has settled in well into our class. Keep a good look out for him, he might appear in your classroom!

Yesterday was the first of our school Behaviour Credit Card Days.  The vast majority of the school who have behaved well this term and recieved their Bronze award were invited to a cinema afternoon in the hall wearing their own clothes.  Mr. Kirkpatrick even told the children that they could bring in a chocolate bar too!   So much for being a ‘Healthy School!’

Everyone had a great time and it was well deserved!

Punch and JudyYear 2 enjoyed a super trip to the seaside. It was just like I remember from my childhood; sand between the toes, Punch and Judy, Kamikaze seagulls trying to pinch our sandwiches (they were successful in the case of John’s Sausage and Mrs Batty’s ice cream), a walk on the pier and ice creams for all. Thanks to Mrs Batty for organising it all and to John and Miss Turner for supporting the trip.

This  is a clip of some of Year 2 dancing the waltz.  So far we have learnt the waltz, cha cha, quick step and jive.  I’m very pleased with the progress everyone has made!

Yesterday was World Book Day at school.   Almost everyone got dressed up as a character from their favourite book for the day – including some of the teachers!   We arranged a book swap for everyone and then had an assembly in the afternoon where everybody showed off their creations.   Here are some videos and prefentations to show the sorts of things that went on :

This week Mrs Batty appeared in school wearing a rather unusual hat.   She said that it was something to do with what was going on in her classroom.   Could Year Two tell us anything more about what was going on?
