Year Two Class

Year 2 consists of two classes, Kangaroos and Gazelles.

The children are encouraged to be independent learners and are given increasing responsibility throughout the year. Both Year 2 classrooms offer a variety of learning opportunities to be independently accessed. Well stocked reading areas encourage a relaxed enjoyable experience. Role play areas are linked with current topics, writing areas and creative areas offer children different aspects to their learning. Technology is also a key feature within our learning environment.

In the Autumn term, Year 2 will learn about ‘The Plague’ and the ‘Great Fire of London’, where children will be taking part in a Great Fire of London drama workshop with local actors. 

The Spring term topic is ‘Hot and Cold’, where the children will be learning about countries and animals from around the world. The children will be visiting Drusillas Park Zoo to find out more about animals and their habitats. 

In the Summer term, we will be finding out about the history of Castles and will be visiting Bodiam Castle.
