Hello Year 2

Miss Moran is your class teacher and we are lucky to have Dr Mishra working with us.
Welcome to our class page. We’re excited to inform what the class will be learning this half term, as well as showing you all the fun we are having on their learning journey.

This term's value and virtues are faith-filled and hopeful.

Pupils are growing to be faith-filled in our beliefs and hopeful towards our future.

Our class saint is St George.

Thank you for all your support

^{This term we are learning about Sharing in the life of Christ and Advent.}

Children will be reading the important stories from the New Testament about the life of Jesus and Mary and the call of the disciples. They will know that the Rosary is a special form of Christian prayer. Later on, we will be celebrating Advent and preparing for the arrival of the Messiah.

Curriculum

This term our Curriculum is about
Muck, Mess and Mixtures.

Let’s get messy! Muck and mess is good! In fact, it’s marvellous!

Dive in and get your hands all sticky and covered in paint. Play around with liquids, squish some dough and check out the mushiest of foods.

Pour, mix, stir, splat! Don’t worry about the mess, it will always wash.

Science

This term, we are learning about Materials.

We will be identifying the materials of different objects and discussing their suitability.
