Welcome back! We hope you had some spooky fun over half-term!

The Year 2 team are looking forward to continuing with our topic about ‘The United Kingdom’ and we’re excited to start reading our new book for this half-term: ‘Meerkat Mail’. We’ll be finding out all about what Sunny the Meerkat has been up to over his half-term holiday… We wonder where he could have been?

We are continuing with our fascinating topic all about ‘The United Kingdom’. Now we know the four countries of the UK. we’re going to be finding out a bit more about what makes them special. We’re also going to be learning about everyday materials and how we use them in our science lessons.
