Year 2

Year 2 enjoyed listening to ‘The Butterfly Lion’ outside in the Story Area underneath the shade of the tree. 

Year 2 haven been learning about the history of their local area and how it links to other parts of the world. They learnt about how slaves from Africa were bought and sold. 

Year 2 enjoyed learning about how Whitehaven is connected to Africa at The Rum Story museum today. 

As part of their topic on Africa and preparation for their trip to The Rum Story tomorrow, Year 2 re-enacted how squashed the slaves must have felt on the slave ships. 

Year 2 enjoyed taking part in the Country Dancing Festival at Whitehaven Sports Centre.

Year 2 were invited to a workshop hosted by Florence Arts Centre in Egremont this afternoon. It was led by designer and creator Ian Stephenson. We found out about Dr Driver and his colourful STEAM Time Machine. 

Year 2 have had a wonderful day at the end of SATs week. A well deserved treat after all their hard work. 

Well done to our class who took part in a gymnastics competition this week and came 2nd!

Year 2 children have been painting the Nativity scene today to mark the Epiphany tomorrow.

Their paintings will be entered into a competition
