Welcome to Class 2!
Learning Question: How does the work of Mary Anning help us to learn more about Dinosaurs?
Welcome to Year 2.
In the classroom this year there will be:
Mrs Hume (Class teacher)
Mrs Hardisty, Miss Lyttle and Ms Halliday (Teaching Assistants).
We are looking forward to a year of fabulous learning!
The children will bring their reading books home every day. We would like them to read at least 3 times a week. Please remember to sign their record book when they read with you at home.
Library day is Wednesday. Please return library books each Wednesday.
The children will bring home spellings every Friday. Please help them to practice these and return the books each Monday so we can have a quick spelling test.
We continue to use Tapestry to share our learning and give and receive messages and reminders. Please keep your eye on it for any updates.
Our PE days are Tuesday (outdoor) and Wednesday (indoor).
Thank you.

SPONSORED WALK FOR THE BIBLE SOCIETY (30.10.24)
In the year 1800 Mary Jones, walked 26 miles, barefoot across rugged mountains, simply to buy a Bible. This inspired the formation of The Bible Society – committed to faithfully living out the belief that the Bible should be made available for every man, woman and child in the world.
We are very pleased to announce Class 2 walked 26 laps around our middle deck playground for our sponsored walk and raised an amazing £475 for The Bible Society!
A huge thank you to our Class 2 parents and families for your sponsors and support with this.
MEASURING DINOSAURS
Today we went outside to measure dinosaurs and were amazed at just how big they were!
Then we compared them to the biggest dinosaur alive today, a blue whale.
A blue whale is bigger than most dinosaurs, it would fill our playdeck!
