Last Monday, Year 2 had the fun of going to Beth Chatto Gardens. We learnt all about the gardens, saw some helpful pigs, collected nature to create a postcard and even got to plant our own herbs. The children all loved the activities, in particular the bug hunting and potion making. Here are some photos of our day.

 Our maths task today in Year 1 was counting from 51 to 100. During the lesson we sang counting songs, played an interactive game on the Smart board and consolidated the learning using number squares. Mr Hopegood

Carrying on with our theme of cricket skills, this week we focussed on fielding as a team, passing the ball between team player quickly and accurately and a little bit of batting. The adults were very impressed with Year 5's good sportsmanship, team support and inclusive attitude. Mr Hopegood

 Year 2 have been looking at money over the last 2 weeks. They have been recognising coins and notes, comparing amounts of money, as well as finding different ways to make the same amount. I wonder if you could have a go at adding some amounts together at home?

 Wishing you all a very merry Christmas and a healthy, happy New Year! Thank you all for our lovely presents - you are all very kind and generous!  From 2L staff :)

 Year 2 had a fantastic day yesterday! They were lucky enough to have a very exciting day recreating the life of people living through the Great Fire of London. They were then able to explore and dig up the ruins of London. Have a look at some of the fun they had!
