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 compassionate and loving

Pupils are growing to be compassionate towards others near and far especially the less fortunate and loving by our actions and through forgiveness.

Our class saint is St George. 

Thank you for all your support

Cornerstones

Our topic this term is 

The Scented Garden. 

Tiptoe through the tulips as your senses discover the blooming foliage and enchanting fragrances of flowers and herbs. Round and round the mulberry bush we go, planting seeds and bulbs and then watch them grow beneath the sunshine and shadows. Everything is coming up roses! Why not grow your own?

Science

Linking to our Cornerstones topic this term, we are learning about Plants 

We will be learning about the life cycle of a plant and what they need to grow.
