In science today, we have been learning about identifying and classifying and setting up market stalls depending on how we chose to classify each item…
Welcome back to school and Year Two! Everyone has had a great day seeing each other and getting reacquainted with their friends and investigating the new classroom!
Learning about lifecycles! We have been finding out how animals, including humans, change as they grow into adults! @highfieldyear1 #science #highfieldprep #research #investigation
Our wonderful school council had it’s last meeting of the year today. The best bit about being a rep? Feeling like the headteacher because they made some big decisions and the badge! Thank you for your help this year! #studentvoice #schoolcouncil #highfieldprep #youngleaders

Today, we have been building contractions using some special sticky notes and special pens. We have been looking at how two words can get squished together to make a shorter word. Check us out! 🧠📝 #learning #grammar #highfieldprep #resilience

@HighfieldRecep we have been reading the story, ‘Oliver’s Fruit salad’ and learning about fruit in our Topic lesson. Today we created our own fruit salad using a variety of delicious fruit. We carefully chopped up each fruit into smaller pieces, ready for us to eat! #yummyfruit
Taking a well earned yoga break during our writing assessment! This time not only gives us time to stretch out our arms and legs, but also improves focus and gives us a positive sense of well-being! #smashingit #yogaforkids #wellbeing #highfieldprep #amazinglearning
Amazing outdoor learning! With the gorgeous weather we are having there is no reason not to take our learning outside! Year 1&2 did some foraging and then used needles and thread to make beautiful necklaces! #finemotorskills #learningisfun #outdoorlearning

@HighfieldNurs had a wonderful time with our home made binoculars looking for penguins. We wrapped up warm for our Antarctic exploration and hunted for the sounds in the playground. @EYChatsworthSch @chatsworthschls @HighfieldPrep
Year 2 are making sketch maps to explore our new English topic - stories about dragons - we're investigating all the places that dragons could be hiding in the classroom just like they are hiding in the book 'The Dragon Machine'!

Thanks to the generosity of our families and PTA, every pupil @HighfieldPrep @chatsworthschls has donated an advent calendar to @FoodbankBerks to give out to the families they support during the festive period. #foodshare #donation #maidenhead #RBWM #adventcalendar
We’ve kicked the new half term off with two new units in Science and Topic - today we did some role play to investigate ‘the plotters’ asking and answering some very important questions connected to our new topic ‘The Gunpowder Plot!'

We are scientists! This morning in Science, we have been planting seeds to investigate what plants need to be healthy. We have planted broad beans and cress, recorded our observations and made some predictions of what we think will happen in the next few days and weeks…
“Learning is so much fun!”
“Yes, I love learning outdoors.”
Year 2 continue to enjoy their outdoor learning sessions.@HighfieldHead @chatsworthschls
