This term Bishop Patrick has asked us all to think deeply about the Church. In school we had a day to think about everything we know about the Church, what we like and dislike about the Church and how it makes us feel when we go. We then thought about what the Church of the future would look like and the changes we could make to acheive our hopes for it. All of our thoughts and ideas will be fedback to the Diocese and to Bishop Patrick.

Year 2 have been exploring Pop Art which is art based on popular everyday objects or people. Bright colours are often used to grab your attention.
We found out that Pop Art started in the 1950s and Andy Warhol was a famous artist in New York. Take a look at the work we produced. Can you guess what our popular everyday objects are? We hope you love our work as much as we do.
Sharing our Christmas lunch-December 2021
This year we shared our Christmas lunch in the classroom. We made special hats, decorated the tables and had Christmas music playing while we enjoyed our fantastic meal!
PSHE-Meeting our local Police Community Support Officer-December 2021
During our History topic about Heroes, we talked about people who help us in our local community. We were very lucky to have a visit from one of our local heroes-the PCSO. She told us all about the work of the Police and how they keep us safe every day. We were even able to sit inside the Police car and wear the Police helmets!

During our Keeping Healthy topic in Science, the children also had to think about what makes a healthy diet. They learnt all about the food groups and how important it is for us to eat a good variety of different types of food. They were asked to design and make a healthy sandwich that would contain as many of the food groups as possible. Whilst making the sandwiches, the children were learning skills in using kitchen tools safely and making food in a clean and safe environment.
Washing Hands Investigation-December 2021
During our Science topic about Keeping Healthy, we explored how important it is to keep our hands clean and germ-free, especially in these current times. We carried out an investigation to 
find out the best way to clean dirt from our hands and we discovered how important it is to use warm water and soap.
November 2021
On the first day of Advent the whole school enjoyed a day of reflection and prayer. We all wanted to think about how we could get ready for the coming of Christmas. During the day we had a great time making the Advent Wreath to be used for our reflections in class each day during 
Advent. 
Judaism- November 2021
During Other Faiths Week we learnt more about the religion of Judaism. We looked specifically at the celebration of Shabbat-the Jewish Sabbath. We re-enacted the celebration and made Challah bread to share together.
Signs and Symbols topic October 2021
In RE we have been thinking about the celebration of Baptism. So that the children understood the signs and symbols involved in the Sacrament, they re-enacted the celebration in groups.
On Monday May 24th we celebrated the birthday of the Church-Pentecost! Throughout school there were lots of fun activities happening all day and the children enjoyed a wonderful celebration. The activities included making bracelets and pinwheels and designing and creating our ‘Eyes on theWorld’.
