This week, Year 2 students had an exciting visit from Father George, who talked to them about the Annunciation of John the Baptist. He explained why this event is important in the Christian faith and how it marks the arrival of a key figure in their teachings. The children then retold the story in their Religious Education lessons, showing that they understood the main ideas.
In Science, Year 2 has been looking at the food pyramid. They learned about different food groups and why making healthy choices is important. Through discussions and visual aids, they identified which foods belong in each category, helping them understand how to eat well.
In History, the children learned about the Gunpowder Plot, discovering how it shaped British history. They engaged in lively discussions about the events surrounding Guy Fawkes and his intentions, allowing them to connect with the past in a meaningful way.
Finally, in Oracy and Current Affairs, the children talked about Remembrance Sunday and the significance of the poppy. They discussed why it is important to remember those who served our country, which helped them think about community and sacrifice.
