Year 2 w.b. 24th March 2025
Date: 28th Mar 2025 @ 4:07pm
This has been a busy week! The Jungle Book, special Mother’s Day service at St. Oswalds and a trip to Nantwich!
On Tuesday we were treated to a viewing of The Jungle Book, the children loved it! The animal puppets were great and they all got to join in with the songs.
History – Trip to Nantwich.
We learnt all about the Great Fire of Nantwich which was started by Nicolas Brown on the 10th of December 1583, there were similarities to the Great Fire of London that the houses were build of wood and very close together and that the fire had to be put out using only leather buckets. We also learnt about the bears that were realised and running around the town which meant the fire kept going for 20 days as people were too scared of the bears to get near the fire to put it out! Queen Elizabeth I gave £1000 to help rebuild the town.
Spelling –
No spelling test next week but you can keep practising some of the year 2 Common Exception words:

English –
We have written a report all about our trip to Nantwich, making sure that we used time connectives and wrote in chronological order. We also wrote about our trip to Nantwich, trying to write in paragraphs.
Maths –
We have continued work on capacity, learning that there are 1,000 millilitres in a litre.
PSHE – Harold Saves For Something Special
We discussed that people have choices about what they do with their money, we talked about how we could save money for a use at a future time. And how we might feel when we spend money on different things.
Music – We sang London’s Burning and some of us could remember the Nantwich version too!
Art –
We completed the printing of our Hannah Dunnett pictures and mixed colours to create a field or sea image.
PE -
PE assessment of running, throwing and catching and jumping.
Thank you to all the parents who came to our Mother’s Day Service on Thursday, we hope all our mums enjoy the day on Sunday!
