Reading

In Class 2, we love our books! We ensure that we choose and share a variety of books every day in class. Further, every child is encouraged to access a selection of books related to our topic. To encourage this love of reading further at home, you could read and talk about the books they bring back home in their book bag.

For the Year 2s who have access to Accelerated Reader leveled reading books, it is expected that your child is to read for at least 30 minutes to 1 hour per day. Accelerated reader quizzes can be accessed at home. Please click on the link below and then enter in your user name and password.

Class 1 and 2 Trip to Restormel Castle

We had a rather long, loud but fun ride on a big, big coach to the castle.

When we reached the venue, we all stopped for a rest and some snacks.

Then we all explored the castle with our groups and adults. It was super exciting as we identified the different parts of a castle.

Then we stopped for a long lunch break.

The afternoon was filled with a variety of activities.

From crown making and playing at being different royal personages…

To toasting marshmallows and eating gooey smores…

To going on a scavenger hunt…

It was all fun… and tiring… and amazing!
