Year 2 - Making festive fruit kebabs
Year 2 making their fruit kebabs to sell at the Christmas Fair.
Year 2 - DT - Chopping skills
As part of making our fruit kebabs, year 2 have been learning to chop and organise their fruit in preparation to assemble their fruit kebabs. We learned both bridge and claw methods of cutting fruit in a tidy fashion to make our fruit kebabs more appealing.

Design and Technology- Christmas Fair
In D.T this term, the whole school have worked their absolute socks off. The children have made wooden reindeer ornaments, festive fruit kebabs with choc drizzle and marshmallows, fire engines, photo frames, festive sausage rolls, seasonal stockings and Christmas themed cushions. The children then had the opportunity to purchase their products at our school Christmas fair.

Year 2 - Exploring how angels are portrayed.
During our RE lessons, we have been exploring how angels have been portrayed in different ways. We have looked at: traditional, stained glass windows, statutes, cartoon images and we looked at the similarities and differences between all of them.
KS1 Kurling Festival
A huge congratulations to our Year 2 Kurling stars who represented our school brilliantly at the KS1 Kurling Festival. They narrowly missed out on third place. A special thank you to our Sports Leaders for supporting and encouraging our team and to Me Bloomfield for coaching them.
Celebration Worship
In Celebration Worship this morning we looked at how our children continue to work so very hard in promoting our Christian and British values. We are all so very busy preparing for the Christmas Fair, school performances and Christmas Worship. We had our House Team Winners announced for this half term - Whitehall Park for the second consecutive time- well done. It is so lovely to see all of the children celebrating each others success as we had lots of awards for out of school sports today.
Inter- House Sports in FS and KS1
What a fantastic opportunity we had this morning taking part in the Inter- House Dodgeball Competition. Foundation Stage and Key Stage 1 loved every second and we saw some great sportsmanship and tactical decision making. A huge thanks to The Sports Leaders for organising and running the event too!
