• Year Group Focus—Year 2

  Fri 03 Jul 2026

  Year 2 have continued the impress us all year and have been working very hard.

  In the Spring term we had a Geography focus, learning all about Amazing Africa! We looked at Nairobi in Kenya and learnt about the Masai Tribe and how they live. The children really enjoyed crafting their own Masai beaded necklaces and naming the continents with the continents song.

   

  This half term in History we will be learning about how significant women changed history, focusing on Rosa Parks and Malala Yousafzai. The children brought in some amazing homework that staff were very impressed with.

   

  We have continued our Science theme of Animals, living things and their habitats into the summer term. It has been nice to able to get outside more and look at the environment and wildlife around us in school. This term we have be learning about and creating our own food chains.

   

  In English, the children have been writing about The Clean-Up Crew, exploring the importance of caring for our beaches and understanding how plastic pollution affects marine animals. This work has linked nicely to our Geography topic, where we have been learning about seas and coasts. The children have especially enjoyed learning the names of the oceans and creating fact files about Blackpool.
