Test Park Football Festival

On 11th May we went to Test Park to practise and improve our football skills. We played matches, dribbled the ball and took shots into the mini goals. My best bit was when we played matches because I scored two goals.

Year of Mercy

We started off by writing some hearts to show how we can be merciful to create a Holy Door into our little Prayer House in the Foundation playground. Next we made some little hearts of how we've been merciful each day and we stick them to our display next to our classroom. Then Miss Baileff taught us how to teach mercy to others around us, the teachers and the school.
Also we started learning about God's Spirit through a song we learnt in music. We have also learnt how Jesus showed himself to be God through his miracles.

The Lost Sheep

As part of our RE topic on Lent, we looked at the parable of the Lost Sheep. We were asked to retell it.

The Lost Sheep by Matty

I was happily grazing in the warmth of the sun. I wanted to go somewhere out of the field so I sneakily crept out of it. While I was creeping out the shepherd counted them. "One...two...ninety-nine...a hundred..." By that time I was gone. "Baa..." I bleated. I saw a silvery gold glitter in a rock so I carefully walked across a narrow rock-made passage and...BOOM! It crashed! It was very scary but the shimmering was a polished rock. I felt it and no... IT WAS A CRYSTAL! I kept it in my fur.
Suddenly, my shepherd came for me! How was he going to save me? He stretched his crook across the gap. He tip-toed across his crook and took me back to the field and took the crystal out of my fur. Nowadays he keeps the crystal in a jar to remember what happened.

Year 2 learn about Florence Nightingale and Mary Seacole - the people who made hospitals better!

Last Thursday, January 21st, something exciting happened in Year 2. We saw a theatre group who acted the stories of Florence Nightingale and Mary Seacole. Also we acted, learnt facts, sang songs and raps about them and freeze-framed pictures about their lives.

Some facts we learnt include:

  • They were amazing people.
  • Florence Nightingale was called the Lady of the Lamp.
  • They looked after soldiers during a war.
  • Hospitals were made better.
  • Florence started a school for nurses to train them properly.
 It was fun because it felt like we were actually there.
