Autumn Term 2023

It was great to be back at school in the autumn term. It has been busy and challenging but the children have been fantastic throughout.

RMS Titanic (History)

Year 2 children took a blast to the past in our exciting topic, The Titanic!

The children learned all about life as a passenger on board the RMS Titanic through role play and researching facts.

We then went to the SeaCity Museum where we explored artefacts, dressed up as characters and completed workshops.

It was a fantastic day and the children had lots of fun while building their knowledge!

Nutcracker inspired diorama (Design & Technology)

The children got creative this half term with their Nutcracker inspired dioramas!

The children learned all about the Nutcracker story, danced to Tchaikovsky music and learned some valuable skills in mechanisms, before planning, designing and creating their very own dioramas.

The children loved using shoe boxes and different materials to make their scenes come to life.

Finally, they added their characters on levers and gave a performance to the rest of the class! onal tale!

Meerkat Mail (English)

We had a very cheeky visitor arrive in England all the way from the Kalahari Desert, Sunny the Meerkat!

He first took a tour of Portsmouth before he was spotted by a neighbour at our school getting up to mischief.

The children were amazed and wrote a newsletter for the local newspaper and postcards to his friends and family back home,

of all the things that Sunny got up to at our school.

Christmas

We have had lots of fun preparing for Christmas.

We helped with the Christmas Market and danced at our Christmas party.
