 Year 2 triorama for Science. 

Year 2 have been learning about habitats in science and this week they explored ocean habitats and what animals use plants for in the ocean . They researched two animals that live in the sea; sea turtles and pufferfish. To display this information Year 2 made triorama with visual and written information. They had a wonderful time making them! 

Year 2 Great Fire of London walk

Yesterday, the entire cohort of Year 2 went for a trip into town! following their investigation into the causes and effects of the Great Fire of London, it was time to visit the real locations. We took the Central Line to St Paul's Cathedral, pausing to admire the work of architect Sir Christopher Wren, who designed the cathedral and much of London after the fire, before crossing over to Bankside and take in some culture at the Tate Modern while we ate our lunch. We saw so many sights on our walk to our final destination of the Monument, where we all gathered together to sing London's Burning and admire more of Wren's architecture. We had a fantastic day and would like to thank all of the volunteers who joined us and made it possible!

 Here are some pictures from across the school this afternoon. We dressed up as numbers or Rock Stars to celebrate Number Day in association with the NSPCC. We'll let you know how much we raised in the next Newsletter.

Make sure you get on TTRS today as there's still time to get yourself on the leaderboard of the NSPCC Rocks competition. The competition ends this evening (Friday 6th February 2026) at 7.30. 

GET TIMES-TABLING!!!!!!!

Year 2 visit Hainault Fire Station

 

Today 2 Adams visited our local fire station on New North Road as part of our learning in English, Design Technology and History, where we are learning about the Great Fire of London.

We were able to hear the siren that alerts fire fighters to their next job, learn about what type of emergencies that the fire service gets called to and explored what equipment is kept on the fire engine itself. 

We were lucky enough to see the specialist fire engine at Hainault, one of only three in London, which holds even more water and has longer ladders than standard engines.

As a special bonus, every child (and adult) had a turn at using the hose for target practise!

Thank you so much to the fire fighters who welcomed us and gave us a guided tour today.
