Y2 have been developing our art skills. Some of us used paints and pastels to create some wonderful firework pictures and some of us explored how colours make us feel at the Tate Modern.
Year 2 went to the Victoria and Albert Museum as part of our history learning. Like real historians, we used statues, clothes, books, furniture and paintings to find all about what China was like in the past.
Y2 have been caring for a precious dragon egg! We are waiting to see if it hatches. Soon we will be writing all about dragons – look out for some of our writing on the school website.
Year two were lucky enough to visit Lewisham Library and see a performance by the Iroko Theatre Company. There was story telling, music and dancing!
Year 1 and 2 visited the Greenwich Islamic Centre to learn about Islam.
Jaina :Muslims pray five times a day and when they pray, they face towards Mecca.” Khaeleam : ” Men pray in one room and women pray in different room.” Sariyah : ” Women cover their heads to show respect.” Year 2 had a lovely time on our trip to Mudchute Farm. We learned all about the animals, their needs and their young.
Today we had a visit from Firefighter Hazel who taught us all about fire safety.
“You can’t play with lighters and you can’t play in the kitchen.’ Talianna “When your house is on fire, you need to call 999 for the fire engine.” Lisa “The fire engines have a blue, shiny siren that let other cars know that they’re coming through.” David Animal Magic visited the whole school to show us some exciting creatures! Years One and Two even got the chance to handle and feed some wonderful animals.
We have been helping our community by keeping the church grounds tidy. It was hard work but we felt so proud of ourselves!
