Home Learning Autumn 2

Here is the home learning menu for Autumn 2. We were so impressed by the standard of home learning last half term and cannot wait to see all the things you do this half term. Please remember to complete your homework in your home learning books or upload it to Seesaw. Remember you can get a bronze award for completing 4 pieces of homework, a silver award for 6 pieces and a gold award for completing all 8 pieces.


Would a dragon be a good friend?

In Autumn 2, our topic is 'Would a dragon be a good friend?' where we will be learning all about dragons, Queen Victoria and building our own castles. For more information, please see the topic web below.


Superhero Live Artwork

We worked as a team to create a city skyline using our cutting skills. We then posed in the pictures in our fantastic superhero outfits to create our live artwork. 


Superhero Day

Year 1 had lots of fun on Superhero Day coming dressed up as their favourite superheroes and villains. Can you guess who we came dressed up as?

We had to save Travelling Ted in a superhero obstacle course and made some superhero live artwork too. 


Tameside Libraries half term events

During October half term there are many free activities on at Tameside Libraries- please see the images attached for more information. 

Half term activities

We have lots going on for children and families during the upcoming half term.


Autumn Scavenger Hunt

We found some fantastic natural objects today when we did our Autumn Scavenger Hunt! We finished off the afternoon by making some delicious pizza wraps.


Reading Ambassadors training

Today the KS2 Reading Ambassadors met together for their training with Cassie from and Joy from Tameside Libraries. They have ideas ready to set a whole school reading challenge.

Thank you for your ideas- what a great team! 


Super Space Week

Week beginning the 4th October is national space week. The school immersed themselves in learning about space. They have been fascinated about our solar system, the planets, the moons, space travel, astronauts and other galaxies. Year 2 even went to Jodrell Bank as a trip. Look at how fantastic the schools' display looks. 


Black History Month

The whole school have been studying important black historical figures. The children have worked hard to learn and perform poems, find out about segregation and the American civil rights movement, to learn about inspirational figures and their fight for equality, freedom and reduce racism. We all hope in the future for an equal society, where regardless of the colour of our skin, we are treated fairly and with respect.
