It has been another busy week in P2.

We enjoyed seeing Mrs Keenan again for music and could be heard singing at the top of our voices and marching to the beat from the other end of the corridor!

We continued to explore the health and wellbeing indicators.  We are beginning to recognise their importance to our own health and we can link them to some of our Rights.

We have been exploring some more maths vocabulary and can confidently use the phrases less/fewer than and more than.  We are beginning to access our Sumdog accounts so that we can play games and have competitions to support our learning in maths.

We enjoyed another assembly with Miss Pritchard and reported back on how we can spread kindness.  Congratulations to Kendall who won our first certificate of the school year for impeccable listening and always showing the school values.

We can’t wait to do it all again next week!  Have a great weekend!

It’s been another full week in P2 and the learning is well underway.   We enjoyed our first assembly of the school year today and got the chance to show off some of our dance moves.

We began our new topic, people who help us and had a hunt around our school to find some staff members that are new to us that we may come across on our St Mary’s journey.

We demonstrated some of the writing skills we learned in P1 during our first writing assessment of the year.

Well done P2 for your hard work and enthusiastic start to the term.

Welcome back to our wonderful P2s!  What a fabulous first week.  Although, I’m so sorry to say that we were having so much fun, we forgot to take any photographs.  We will endeavour to do better next week.  I do have a couple of PE shots thanks to Mrs McMaster!

We have spent the week getting to know each other and establishing the new rhythms and routines within the classroom.

We have contributed to our class charter where we learned about our rights ands the responsibilities we have within our school.

We discussed our St Mary’s school values (respect and good manners, friendship, perseverance, trust and honesty, safety) and what they will look like in our classroom.

We listened to the Colour Monster, played the colour monster game and created our own colour monster to share how we were feeling.  We know that we can use the monsters to check in and share our feelings with the grow ups in school every morning.

We celebrated our first mass in P2 and the level of respect shown was outstanding.  It was a special mass to mark the Assumption of Our Blessed Lady.

We painted symmetrical butterflies to decorate our classroom door ready for any visitors.

Overall, a wonderful, busy, fun-filled start to an exciting year.

Over the past couple of weeks, we’ve said goodbye to our wonderful Mrs Topping with a teddy bears picnic and some party games, we’ve visited the safari park, we’ve written the new eco code for St Mary’s and gained our Eco Schools green flag.

2023/2024 has been an absolute blast in P2 and we have so many wonderful memories to look back on. Have a fantastic summer and we will see you all back here in August.
