Christingles

In RE Year 2 have been learning about Christianity and how Christians believe that Jesus is the light of the world. We made Christingles which Christians make at Christmas time.

 

Animal Visit

In science we have been learning all about animals. We had a visit from some minibeasts which were very interesting to look at. We even got to hold some!

 

Textiles

During our textiles topic we have been learning to sew and have made these beautiful fabric faces. Take a look at our amazing work.

 

MADD week

In the last week of Autumn term we celebrated MADD week. This stands for music, art, dance and drama. We have been learning the song Jingle Bells to perform in assembly and have made a dance routine for this. We created some calendars based on our previous art work where we studied L. S. Lowry and made some decorations using natural materials. We've had an absolute blast!
