Our visit to Pontyclun Fire Station

We all enjoyed our trip to the fire station today. First we were told a story about Tanni who played with matches and accidentally caused a fire. Luckily it all ended well as nobody got hurt. We learned about how to keep safe.

Then we went all got to try on a firefighters helmet. We were really surprised at how heavy it was.

Then we all went in to the fire engine. The steps were really high!,

Finally it was time to go home. A big thank you to Pontyclun fire station. We all really enjoyed our trip and learned how to keep safe.

Class 4 Enjoy Fairy Tale Party

On Friday all of Class 4 enjoyed celebrating the wedding of Prince Charming and Cinderella with a Fairy Tale Themed Day and Party. First of all we did a survey to find out which fairy tale was Class 4's favourite. We found out that Jack and the Beanstalk was the favourite. Next we evaluated the wedding invitations we had designed and made for Prince Charming. Finally we finished with a class party. We enjoyed playing Pass the Parcel , Pin the Tail on the (Shrek's) Donkey and did lots of dancing.

Our autumn walk

Class 4 made the most of the lovely Autumn weather last week. We all enjoyed walking around the school grounds looking for signs that Autumn was here. We collected lots of apples from the Nature Reserve and used them to print repeating patterns back in class.

A Busy Few Weeks!!

Year 2 have had a very busy start to the Autumn Term.

To begin our topic 'Pop Up', we had a visit from a local Author and Story Teller who told the children how he gets inspired to write stories. He even wrote a brand new story just for us!

We have been reading, acting out and discussing lots of Fairy and Traditional Tales. On Friday we even had a letter from Prince Charming! He has asked Class 4 to design and make some really special Wedding Invitations for his wedding to Cinderella, so Class 4 are going to be really busy up to half term carrying out his request!!

We have decided to hold our own 'Ball' in class to help Prince Charming and Cinderella celebrate their wedding. Details will be posted ASAP!!

The end of the school year!

A big 'thank you' for all the gifts that you sent in the last week of term. We have had a very busy and fun year and am sure all of Class 4 will do very well in their next classes! Have a fantastic summer holiday!

Making welsh cakes!

This week we have been learning about weighing and measuring using ingredients to make delicious welsh cakes. Next week, we will be selling our welsh cakes to the rest of the school! 

We had lots of fun making them!
