Year 2

Our children have had a wonderful day exploring different languages and countries. They have learned where countries are in the world. The languages spoken in that country as well as the capital cities.  They have explored activities to celebrate that country as well as dress up in the colours of the country. In school we […]

Our children have been hard at work preparing for their contribution to the Comic Arts Festival. Mrs Day has been working on presenting the children’s work which is displayed at Highgate’s Vets in Kendal. Please go and have a look at the fantastic window display!  Very well done to our Year 1 children.  It would […]

Samuel Pepys buried a round of Parmesan so that it wouldn’t get burnt in the Great fire of London. We decided we needed to see what all the fuss was about and had some on our crackers. The whole class loved it and came back for seconds and thirds.

We have been loving using our natural meter sticks to do maths with. We have been counting forwards and backwards in 2,5, and 10s, been measuring with them and even used them to work out the value of numbers.

Yet another exciting day for Year 2! Yesterday,  Jo Gill, an ambassador for STEM,  held a science workshop to support our current topic on Electricity (no pun intended, honest!). To create their ‘jitterbugs’ the children had to make a complete circuit using a motor. It was very fiddly and required lots of patience but was worth the […]

Year 2 had a fabulous time making their own seaside picnic at QES last week. The 6th Formers (all Food Technology students) were great! Once the children had their plastic aprons on, they showed the children what to do, watching closely as they practised their cutting, slicing and grating skills. The resulting pizzas looked and […]

Recently we attended the local athletics tournament held at Casterton, Sedbergh Prep. We took a superb team and with our Year 6 children on their outdoor and adventurous residential, many children had to race  in different classes. For example, our Year 2 children raced in the Year 3 events etc. Impessively we had many individual […]
