World Book Day
On 2nd March, to celebrate World Book Day, we had Iroko theatre company in. We had a wonderful day with them. We learnt an african dance and some interesting storytelling techniques! We really enjoyed ourselves.
NMPAT
Year 2 have been very lucky in Spring 1 and have had the team from NMPAT in to deliver music lessons. They taught us all about rhythm, pace, pitch and dynamics. We learnt lots of fun songs and how to play the glockenspiel! We really enjoyed it!
Fit Kids
On 20th January, we had Daniel from FitKids join us at school. We learnt all about keeping our body healthy. We learnt that we need plenty of sleep, water and food from each of the food groups. We played lots of games and had loads of fun!
WOW day Monday 5th September
As an introduction to our topic 'The Great Fire of London' we had a wow day. This began by taking torches into a dark school hall to discover various artefacts and clues relating to the fire. Then we researched the type of houses that lined the streets of London during this time and made a replica using a cereal box. Once completed the houses were placed close together, as they were in London and then we recreated the fire, gathering vocabulary using our senses and listing the various emotions the people witnessing this event might have felt.
Kingfishers 2021-2022
St Marks Church Visit 16th June 2022
In RE this term our key question is 'What Makes a Place Sacred for Believers?'. Father Ben kindly welcomed us in to St Marks Church and spoke to us about the different celebrations that Christians attend the church for, special clothes that are worn (some of us even tried them on) and the artefacts that we would except to see inside a church. We all really enjoyed the visit (maybe not the walk!) and learnt lots to help us answer our key question.
The Queen's Platinum Jubilee celebrations 27th May 2022
In school we celebrated the Queen's Platinum Jubilee by learning about her reign, completing activities, drawing portraits of the Queen alongside wearing red, white and blue. We all enjoyed a special picnic lunch to remember and mark this historic occasion which we are proud to be a part of.
Irchester Country Park Visit 23rd May 2022
We had a fantastic day at Irchester Country Park learning all about habitats. Our rangers, Charlotte and Helen taught us so many interesting facts. First we started by pretending to be birds, searching for worms (of the woollen variety!) on trees, to teach us about camouflage. Next we saw the Spindle Tree which appeared to be ready for Halloween! We were surprised to learn that it was actually full of tiny caterpillars. Using nets we swooped through the grassland to see what mini beasts we could find and finished our session by looking under logs and exploring the forest school area of the park.
What an informative day we had!
Skateboarding with Matt 18th May 2022
After a couple of unfortunate cancelled sessions, we were delighted to finally welcome Matt with his skateboards and safety equipment. Kingfisher Class demonstrated great partner work, helping each other to balance on the skateboard, jump on and off, as well as guiding each other across the playground. Some of us were very speedy and have a real talent for skateboarding!
NMPAT New Beats Team 10th May 2022
Today we were lucky to have a visit from the NMPAT New Beats Team, a band made up of 4 members. Tim 1 played drums and held the band together, Tim 2 played bass guitar, John played electric guitar and George was the vocalist.
We absolutely loved the songs they played, our favourite being 'We Don't Talk About Bruno' from the Disney film Encanto.
We will be bringing home a leaflet tonight so please check our book bags.
Making Castles 29.03.2022
This term in Design Technology we have followed the design, make, evaluate process to make a castle. We designed a purposeful, functional castle selecting a range of materials and tools to perform practical tasks such as cutting, shaping and joining. Our castle had to include a slider and a lever and look like a castle. When evaluating we thought about what worked well, which part was tricky and how we might improve it next time. Finally we gave it a score out of 10.
Experience Easter at St Barnabas Church 29th March 2022
We visited the church where Mrs Deamer and other members of the church congregation told us the Easter Story. Each station told a different part of the story and had an activity to complete. We particularly enjoyed the bread and grapes at The Last Supper station.
Project Touchline Rugby
Every Friday we are joined by Chris from Project Touchline. He starts with an assembly celebrating a different school value each week which we then incorporate into our rugby sessions. There are lots of different games including Scarecrow Tag, Lions and rabbits, Seals and Sharks, The Jesus Game and Sumo Tag which we all have been enjoying.
'My favourite game was Scarecrow tag because I enjoy tagging people.'
'Rugby is fun because we get to run around lots.'
Happy Red Nose Day!
Chance to Shine Cricket 17th March 2022
Our sporting experiences continued with a visit from Matt from Chance to Shine Cricket. Outside in the sunshine we learnt batting and bowling skills. Please look out for the leaflet we are bringing home.
Tennis taster session 16th March 2022
Archery taster session 13th March 2022
We were visited by Stuart Bryce to give us an introduction to archery. We used the bow and arrow to aim at the target which we thoroughly enjoyed.
World Book Day 3rd March 2022
This year for World Book Day we all came into school wearing a mask of our favourite book character, we all looked amazing. During the day we shared our books with our friends, completed activities and made our own colourful bookmark.
Our day was made even more special with a visit from The Iroko Theatre Group. It started with an assembly where we heard and interacted with the story of The Chicken, The Cow and The Goat. It was so much fun. In our classroom we continues with this story using improvisation for different parts. We concluded the day with our dance session in the hall, some of us were even brave enough to freestyle at the end.
'It was creative!' 'It was fun!' 'It was the best day ever!'

The Great Fire of London 1666
We have all really enjoyed our topic this term and have completed lots of incredible work in all areas of the curriculum. Please ask your children to share some of the facts and knowledge they have learnt in history, you will be impressed with how much they know.
In English we wrote non-chronological reports using headings and sub-headings to gather the relevant information under, After reading Toby and The Great Fire of London by Margaret Nash we wrote our own diary entries, in the first person, imagining we were Toby witnessing the events as they unfolded.
During art we have explored hot and cold colours. pattern, line, texture and shape and applied these skills to create a scene of London during the fire. They look amazing on display in the classroom.
As an end to the topic we had a WOW day. Everyone made a cereal box Tudor style house which we used to create The Great Fire of London on the playground.
Your children have worked incredibly hard this half term, Enjoy the holidays, have fun and remember to return with full reading records!

Shoe box Habitats
Our science topic this term has been living things and their habitats, which we have learnt is a natural environment or home for a variety of animals and plants. We researched various habitats, such as the Arctic, desert, woodland and oceans, focusing on what each habitat provided for the animals and plants that live there, as well as how the animal of plant was suited to it's habitat.
To finish this unit we all created a 'shoe box habitat.'

Amazing weaving
During art this term we have looked at Kente Cloths, which originate in Africa, thinking carefully about the meaning of each colour.
Then using the over and under technique we used different coloured paper strips to create our own cloths which we decorated using geometric shapes. Continuing with the same technique we then selected different fabrics and wove these on a cardboard weaving frame.
They both look amazing and so colourful hanging in our classroom.
Home Learning week beginning 22nd November

We celebrated Children in Need by wearing mufti for a donation. During the afternoon we had a Pudsy Bear colouring competition, well done to our three winners.
5.11.21
After learning about the Gunpowder Plot we discussed firework safety and completed a quiz to check our knowledge. Then we created firework art using pastels on black sugar paper. We loved it! Enjoy fireworks night and remember to stay safe!
18.10.21
We all looked amazing in our superhero costumes. We enjoyed making Supertatoes and creating a comic strip. As part of our Design Technology unit we followed our plans to make a superhero sandwich using the skills we have learnt and the knowledge of the different food groups. Our sandwiches were delicious!
15.10.2021
In science we investigated the best way to remove germs from our hands. Using glitter to represent the germs, first we we used cold water, then warm water, then cold water and soap and finally warm water and soap to see which way was the most effective. Our results showed us that the best way to remove bacteria was to wash our hands with warm water and soap as there was hardly any glitter left when we did this. We also watched a video, (and sang along loudly!) which showed us all the parts of our hands that we need to focus on, such as in between our fingers and our thumbs.
Our Keen Kingfishers have had an amazing first week back in school. We are so proud of them all for how well they have settled in and coped with the expectations of life in year 2. There has been amazing partitioning work in maths, great reading of our new text, Supertato by Sue Hendra as well as lots of work that has made our classroom look fantastic. They deserve a rest this weekend!
We hope you all had a great summer! We are looking forward to the start of a new academic year (hopefully one that is a little more normal!) and are excited to welcome all our new Kingfishers, along with their families tomorrow. If anyone is in a position where they have to isolate and be away from school then please do contact us on the email addresses below and we can put in place some live teaching sessions and remote learning if you are well enough. Please do check on this page to see some of the work we have been completing in school.
Thank you.

We are so pleased that you could apply all the knowledge you have learnt in your science lessons.
Here are the final home learning challenges for this half term before we all have a well deserved and much needed break. Don't forget the alternative ideas too, for those days when you just need a change. Keep going everyone and remember to email your work in. Hopefully we'll be back together again soon.

Hello Keen Kingfishers! We are all missing you so much in school. Well done for completing so much work at home, it's been another great week with lots of emails to make us smile, please keep sending them. Thank you to the parents too, your support and kind words are much appreciated. We understand how hard this is for everyone. You should be proud of all that you are achieving, we certainly are! Enjoy the learning challenges for next week.
Underneath the home learning you will also find a document that has lots of ideas for alternative activities that you can complete at home. We all have days when the learning challenges seem a little too much and our motivation appears to have deserted us, even the adults. So if you are having one of those days, have a look at the grid and see if there is something on there that will lift your mood and give your brain the break that is perhaps longing for.
Just remember that we would still like to see what you are achieving so please ask your grown ups to email some pictures to us.
