In Year 2, we have finished our Picasso artwork, we have loved choosing different shapes and creating our snowmen in cubism form. We hope you love them as much as we do!
Picasso Snowmen ⛄️

Reading Reindeers 🎅⛄️🎄
Today we have made festive bookmarks to use over the Christmas Holidays in our favourite books 📚
Festive Fun ⛄️
I made a little snowman,
I made him just like that!
The sun came out and melted him,
And now my snowman’s flat!
Christmas Party Fun
Today we celebrated the start of our Christmas festivities with a good old fashioned party! From musical bumps to pass the parcel, we had a wonderful time 🎊
A Wriggly Nativity
After weeks of hard work and practice today KS1 performed ‘A Wriggly Nativity’ to a packed out audience and what a show they put on! The dancing, singing, acting and narrating were all outstanding. You should be very proud of yourselves! Merry Christmas Everyone!
Celebrating Shabbat
Today, Y2 have been exploring how and why Jewish people celebrate Shabbat. We discovered that Shabbat is the Jewish Day of Rest. Shabbat happens each week from sunset on Friday to sunset on Saturday. During Shabbat, Jewish people remember the story of creation from the Torah. Jews have a lot of jobs to do on the Friday evening to prepare for Shabbat.
Who is a Jew and what do they believe?
KS1 have begun their new unit in RE, exploring who is a Jew and what do they believe? We explored what items were precious to Jews, for example, The Star of David, The Torah and the Menorah. Oliver suggested that the Torah may tell us stories as the bible does. We discovered that Jews only believe in one God, as do Christians.
KS1 Multi-skills Santa Surprise 🎅
KS1 had a fantastic time yesterday at Campsmount competing in the multi-skills completion. We were so proud of how the children competed, showed resilience and supported their crew. We even got a little gift from the North Pole!
Beautiful work over the last 2 weeks!
It has been lovely finding out what children have been working on across school. Well done to all the children who have shared their beautiful work with me over the last 2 weeks. Some fantastic work 🙂
Peer Critique in Art
Today in our art lesson we did our first and second drafts of our Pablo Picasso snowmen. We thought about the features of a snowman and then how we could use the shapes we had seen in Picasso’s artwork to make our own cubist snowman. After our first and second drafts we worked in pairs to offer critique that was kind, specific and helpful. Well done Crew Robson, I can’t wait to see your 3rd drafts tomorrow!
