Class 2 get spooky for Halloween

Class 2 enjoyed dressing up for the Spooky story evening. The costumes were amazing and we all enjoyed dancing to Halloween songs, colouring spooky pictures, listening to stories and of course, the hot chocolate and marshmallows. IMG_1128

Testing strength of materials in Science

As part of our topic on Materials, class 2 had the challenge of making 6 strips of crepe paper as strong as possible, so that they could hold a bag of shopping without it breaking. The children worked in groups to investigate ways of making their paper stronger without using any other materials.

Some groups shortened their ‘ropes’, whilst others rolled the strips before plaiting or twisting them. We then tested them with a carrier bag and added weights, testing how much weight the ropes could hold.

A Royal delivery

When Prince Harry married Meghan  earlier this year, Class 2 designed wedding cards and drew pictures to send to the happy couple.

Today, we received a reply from the offices of the Duke and Duchess of Sussex thanking the children for their kind words.

Every child who sent a card and picture have received a personal letter to keep.
