Squirrel class have been learning about the artist Arcimboldo. He inspired us to create our own fruit and vegetable collages. Can you see the faces in our artwork? Please see the website “Gallery” for more pictures.
On Tuesday, Year 2 had a fantastic trip to Nower Wood. We spent the whole day in the woods, discovering pond and woodland creatures in their natural habitats. The weather didn’t stop Year 2 from having fun and exploring the outdoors. We even found a toad and a great diving beetle! Please see the website “Gallery” for more photographs.
As part of our RE lessons in Year 2 we have been learning all about the Easter story and the symbols of Easter. To demonstrate our understanding of the Easter story we created our very own Easter gardens. Please see the Website “Gallery” for more pictures.

During the Year 1 shared learning lesson we shared the story ‘DigiDuck’s Big Decision’ and spoke about the importance of keeping safe on the internet.

Some children enjoyed using the safe search engine ‘Kiddle’ to safely search for pictures of animals whilst others created posters warning others to use the internet safely.
