Year 2 2026-2027 Blog

I have just had the privilege of counting the money raised for our sponsored walk on Monday. Well, what can I say? You have raised £2,618.50 so far by sponsoring your child to walk around Gorse Hall. The Year 6 children have mapped the route this morning and are eager to marshal the event. We are so grateful for your generosity. Whenever you pop into school, please have a look at how our sensory room is developing.  I look forward to seeing a lot of you on Monday morning when you join us on the sponsored walk. Dress up warmly as there is a slight chance of rain. 

Year 2 have enjoyed sharing some of the resources that Broadbent Fold have for Christianity.  Children reread and shared stories from The Bible.

Our school received The Jerusalem Trust Grant Last year and this has enabled school to purchase resources such as Bibles, religious themed stories and special objects linked to these stories.

Year 2 compared Dukinfield to Manchester today on their school visit to The Lowry.

Their drama workshop involved them working as a class, in pairs and in groups developing their performing skills all based on the Traditional tale of The Little Red Riding Hood.

Little Red Riding Hood really came alive especially as children moved to different types of music responding to the temptation of the flower!!!!  

Year 2 have most definitely shown huge improvements in their Oracy skills.

Today, we used atlases to find cities in the United Kingdom. They were very good!
