  • Going outside

    Published 16/05/24, by Kiki Amin

    The benefits of the children going outside are huge.

    • improve moods.
    • reduce feelings of anxiety.
    • helping them take time out and feel more relaxed.
    • improve their physical health.
    • improve their confidence and self-esteem.
    • helps them become more active.
    • Help build relationships with other children through play.

    With the changeable warmer weather, the children will go outside as much as possible at break and lunchtimes. Please make sure that your child is prepared with the correct clothing whatever the weather.

    'There's no such thing as bad weather, only unsuitable clothing.'

  • Viking Games 2024

    Published 16/05/24, by Kiki Amin

    On Wednesday 22nd May, Year 2 will be going to our Viking Games! 

    We will be going to Chilton on the school minibus in the morning and will be back in time for lunch at school as normal. All children should come to school in their PE kits on the day with a t-shirt in their house colour (Bussell - red, Emin - blue, Elba - yellow, Malone - Green) if possible, with comfy trainers.

    If the weather is hot, children should bring a hat and wear sun cream. If it turns out to be a chilly day, jogging bottoms and a jumper will be needed!

    All children should have a named water bottle with them. 

    A social story about the event is attached. If you have any questions, just ask! 

    Best wishes, 

    Year 2 team

  • Copse Fun!

    Published 08/05/24, by Kiki Amin

    What a fabulous field trip Year 2 embarked on yesterday with a trip to the local Copse in Newington! Here, we explored plants that grow in our local area, such as Spanish bluebells, wild garlic, Lords and Ladies, ivy, brambles, sycamores, hawthorns and cherry blossom! Using a picture key, we went on a hunt to identify and name different wild plants, trees and flowers and even spotted some living creatures like butterflies, caterpillars and bees! Year 2 love Forest School!
