Sports trust

At St Nicholas, we have been very lucky to have the sports trust in to deliver some fun and active sessions. In year 2, we have taken part in Tiempo dance and fun factory.

All the children had great fun and learnt lots of new skills.

And a big well done to our winners of the sportsmanship medals! They cheered on their peers and worked to the best of their ability during the whole fun factory session.

Book Week

To celebrate World book day, we dedicated a whole week to books.

We focused on poetry for the week, practicing performing parts of a poem and even writing our own repeating poem.

On world book day, we dressed up as our favourite book character and then we were lucky to have poet Paul Jenkins in to do some work with us.

We all had a fantastic week.

Science Investigation

In Science we are learning about animals including humans. The children were given the question: Does age affect shoe size?

We made predictions and talked about how we could measure the feet, talked about how we would make it a fair test and explained our results. Lots of great team work to complete their investigation.

Welcome and Overview

Hello Everyone and Welcome to Year 2.

It was lovely for us to meet your children and see how excited they were to start the new school year. They all looked really smart in their school uniforms.  We can already tell it’s going to be a great year.

Please find enclosed the curriculum overview for this term, telling you all about the wonderful learning we have planned, as well as the Key Instant Recall Facts (Kirf’s) for math’s. We really would appreciate your help in supporting your children to learn these as they improve their fluency and problem solving abilities.

Reading is once again a big focus and we would  like the children to earn their raffle tickets by continuing to read each night. Please remember to sign the contact book.

PE days are Tuesday’s. Could all children please have a named kit in school.

Please do not hesitate to contact us if you have any questions or queries.

Thank you

The Year 2 team
