Autumn Term
Festive Fun in Year 2
We have had so much festive fun this week! A yummy Christmas dinner was followed by a crazy Christmas party on Tuesday; the children had some amazing dance moves! Then we got our creative juices flowing during Year 2 Christmas craft day making wreaths, trees and peppermint creams. What a busy time we have had!
Tree Frogs' Treasure Hunt!
We enjoyed a terrific treasure hunt to finish off our 'Ahoy Newark!' topic today. The children had to swim through shark infested water, walk the plank and solve some curious clues to find the pirate treasure! They were fantastic at solving the clues and were amazed to find a treasure chest containing all sorts of goodies at the end of our hunt. To celebrate their hard work, we finished the afternoon with some biscuit treasure!
Pirate Day!
We have had a grrrrrreat day in Year 2! This morning we decorated coin biscuits, designed and made treasure chests out of clay and made pirate masks! This afternoon we played pirate games in the hall and cheered everyone's brilliant costumes in a fashion show. The day was finished with a pirate film eating our coin biscuit! Arghhh me hearties!
Colourful Toucans!!
Toucans have had a great week! First we mixed primary colours to make secondary colours. Watch this space for us to put out new skills into a pirate ship painting!
The on Friday we dressed in our spotty clothes to raise money for Children in Need. We joined in the competition for the best colouring of Pudsey Bear!!
Well done Toucans! You are all super stars!
Spotty Crocodiles!

Welcome Toucans
Over first week, Toucans have been busy creating their own Toucans for the Key Stage 1 corridor. We have also made our own "Ahoy Newark" display for the classroom. The children completed all of their own cutting, sticking and painting. I think you will agree, it looks fantastic!
