Year Two Time Travel

Where we were this week - Some of Year 2 superimposed on an old photo of the engine shed at the old Abbotsbury Railway Station. Interesting to see how things have changed. Nature has certainly covered over the tracks, but they built those engines sheds to last!

Fun for Year Two on Class Adventure

Two groups of Year Two children went out this week on an adventure of cross-curricular learning. We collected rocks, compared old photos with what's there today, visited two quarries, a railway station, a playground, St. Peter's Church in Portesham and Hardy's Monument - a couple of busy days (blessed with lovely weather)!
I'm looking forward to going out with a third group next week!

Letters home about our "Upwey/Portesham/Abbotsbury Trip" next week

Dear Parents (Year 2),
Please note that the children have come home today with letters about a trip we are doing next week. I apologise for the short notice, but we have had a bit of trouble confirming the availability of the minibus.
Please return the forms as soon as possible.
We are really keen to hear from anyone who could help on either of the trips (even if that meant changing the day when your child is scheduled to go.)
Many thanks,
Duncan MacBean - Class Teacher, Year 2

Year Two - Learning about the old Abbotsbury Railway

We have been finding out about the old Abbotsbury Railway line that used to run from Upwey Junction to Abbotsbury. A hundred years ago, you could see steam trains running along this line. Today the railway line has gone...., but there are still some clues that show us that it used to be there.
We need to find out more!                                                                                     DM

Well Done Year Two! Great First Day!

Well done all of the children in Year Two . 

We have had a very happy, busy and successful first day.
