Apology regarding Home Learning 6th Jan

We are soooooo sorry! We did not hand out the Home Learning sheets today. They were ready, just hiding from us. If you wish to talk and discuss this work this weekend please do. We will send the worksheet home Monday for those who wish to fill out.



 

Y2 Home Learning - 5th January 2017

This week we will be continuing our Victorians topic.  I have sent home a photograph for the children to look at as "history detectives".  There are three questions for the children to consider, please find some time to talk about the photograph and answer the three questions with your child.  They should be encouraged to write their own answers, but please scribe if they are finding this difficult.  You may even like to link the photo to any family history that you know of. 
Please bring back by next Friday for a superhero point and a home learning certificate.

Y2 - Parents' information session - 5th January 2017

Paper and Card Recycling Assembly

Paper and Card Recycling Assembly
In our school assembly today I talked to the children about the importance of us trying to recycle things, with a particular reference to recycling paper and card.
We talked about how paper is made from trees and then looked at a series of photographs that show what happens to "waste" paper when it is recycled and sent to a Recycling Plant to be made into "new" paper.

 I encouraged the children to try to bring in any unwanted Christmas Cards and put them into our Recycling box. We are trying to collect as many as possible and keep a tally of exactly how many we manage to get. It would be very useful if your cards could be tied with an elastic band and the total number written on the front to save us from having to count them individually.

Many Thanks,
Duncan MacBean
