The children in Year 2 had yet another busy week, with lots of opportunities to live out their artistic talents.
Continuing in our learning of the Great Fire of London, the class compared jobs and housing in 1666 to modern day London.
Using various junk modelling materials, they created their own models which now form our beautiful display in class.
In RE, the children reflected on the role of the Holy Spirit in the Disciples’, the Apostles’ and their own lives before looking at the story of Saul’s Conversion. They created beautiful oil pastel pictures to express their own symbols for the Holy Spirit and its power.
In Science, the class used the school grounds again to go for a Local Habitat Scavenger hunt. The children used the keys well to identify sycamore trees, dandelions and daisies as well as nettles and holly bushes. They looked at insects and birds and recorded their own interesting finds such as bees, butterflies and even a ‘fox hole’ 🙂
The Year 2 Liturgy group led the class into a wonderful Act of Worship on Thursday reflecting on our relationship with Jesus.
The class swam really well on Wednesday and enjoyed their Playground Game session with Mr Moretti on Tuesday.
I hope you have a lovely weekend,
Ms Varga
