Year 2 Forest School, by Miss Jones
Date: 21st Oct 2022 @ 3:32pm
What a wonderful way to end our first half term! The children have been delightful and it has been a joy to experience today with them. I am sure they will tell you all of the exciting bits about today but I am truly proud of them. They demonstrated just what sensible, resourceful, respectful and caring Year two’s they are. I tried to capture the magic from behind the camera and the children were most impressed I managed to capture a few dragon sneeze sparks!!!
Thank you Year 2 for a fun Forest day! Have the best half term!

We hope you enjoy our pictures.

The children loved the bubble workshop today. We discovered bubbles won't change shape or colour, no matter if we use triangular bubble wands or coloured bubble mix. We found out that they don't pop when the surface is wet and we all had a turn to be in a giant bubble! Thank you very much to the PTA for funding such an exciting workshop.
