This afternoon we talked a lot about having the right mindset in order to tackle the challenges that lay ahead.  We learnt about several famous people who have had to show great resilience in order to succeed and then tested our own patience, perseverance and resilience with a football, basketball…

Today Mrs Winder came into school to give us all a taste of cheerleading.  Here are just a few snaps of Y2 practising what she taught us.

Today we are investigating the mass of various objects.  It was trickier than it looked to make the two sides of the scale balance.

After dinner we had just enough time to spare for a quick play in the playground.  Here are just a few of us having fun.

Here’s our map of the play area using natural resources.

Another group’s map of the play area.

Another example of the fabulous maps we made of the play area.

We all enjoyed a delicious ice cream or ice lolly after finishing our first map challenge.

We were very proud of our maps of the playground using natural resources found lying around the park.

Our first activity was to locate various features around the park.  Each time we found one we had to then work out where exactly this place was on the map.  It was great fun and even the damp weather didn’t put us off.

Sadly it was all over and we had to leave the park.  We were a bit soggy but great fun was had by all!
