Year Group Focus - Year 2
Fri 08 Nov 2024Year 2 have had a great start to the year ! They have thrown themselves right into learning, leaving year 2 staff very impressed
In Autumn 1 we had a history focus, learning about Florence Nightingale and her work in the Crimean War. We looked at all the ways Florence helped to stop disease from spreading and the children enjoyed writing letter as Florence herself in the re English writing, as well as reading books about her. In Autumn 2 we have a Geography focus of the Artic, learning all about the people and animals that live in the North Pole.
In Art we have been looking at a Sculptor called Antony Gormley. We explored the different scales of sculptures, looking at patterns and materials. The children particularly enjoyed looking at one of his famous statues, the Angel of the North. We used clay to make our own sculpture of Florence Nightingale's owl, Athena. We are very much looking forward to making puppets this half term in DT!
Just this week we have been on a school trip and visited Northwood Farm! Year 2 learnt all about what food is made on farms. They got to stroke sheep, watch cows and baby calves and even fed chickens! The children particularly enjoyed milking a pretend cow and finding wildlife on the fields!

School Council Visit at Rochdale Cenotaph
Fri 08 Nov 2024Pupils from our School Council paid their respects to the fallen with their own special remembrance tribute at Rochdale Cenotaph yesterday.
The pupils, who were joined by local veterans and armed forces lead member, Councillor Janet Emsley: laid a wreath, read poetry and paused for a minute’s silence.
The pupils took the time to ask veterans about their time in the forces, what Remembrance Sunday means to them, and life after service.
Councillor Emsley said: “It was a lovely and poignant gesture from Marland Hill Community Primary School to walk from their school to the cenotaph, and take a moment to reflect and remember. The pupils were a credit to the school through their moving poetry, beautifully designed wreath and interesting and informative questions. Lest we forget.”
The children also visited Rochdale Memorial Gardens to pay their respects.
