Welcome to our Year 2 Class Page. This is home to all of the amazing learning that takes place in our Tawny Owls Class.
Our Year 2 team is made up of Miss Shearer, Mrs Hunter and Mrs Smith.
In our Year Two Class, we aim to deliver an ambitious, well sequenced and progressive curriculum that enables children to build upon prior knowledge, understanding and skills, resulting in them being able to know more and remember more across the curriculum subjects and to fully prepare them for the next stage of education when they move into Key Stage 2.
In Term One, we held 'Parent Curriculum Meetings' which were an opportunity for all parents to come into school so see what their children will be learning across the academic year. Please find a copy of the presentations below. If you have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact your child's class teacher.
The document below provides information for parents and carers on the end of year expectations for children in our school.
Please see a snapshot of the excellent learning that takes place in our Year 2 Class below:
Today, Year 1 and Year 2 had a fantastic day on our school trip to Bristol Zoo. The children were full of excitement as we began exploring the zoo and discovering a wide range of animals. They were especially delighted to see giraffes, zebras, lemurs, wolves, bears, and monkeys — to name just a few! There was plenty of curiosity and enthusiasm as they learned interesting facts and asked thoughtful questions along the way.
We also had the chance to learn even more from some of the wonderful zoo staff, who shared fascinating information about the animals, their habitats, and the history of different species. The sessions were really engaging, and the children loved hearing from the passionate people who work with the animals every day.
We stopped for lunch at a lovely picnic area with a perfect view of the giraffe enclosure. It was a real highlight to enjoy our food while watching these gentle giants up close.
All of the children behaved beautifully and were a credit to the school. It was a truly enjoyable and memorable experience for everyone involved, and we’re so pleased to have shared such a special day with them.

On Friday 13th December, our Year 2 children went to Devizes Sidmouth Club to visit the Alzheimers Support Group. The children engaged in craft activities and performed a number of Christmas songs for the residents. This was a fantastic opportunity for our children to spread some joy and festive cheer during the Christmas period. The children and residents had a fabulous time. We were really pleased to receive the following email from the club manager:
"THANK YOU SO MUCH for bringing the children this morning! The members are still talking about it and they all agreed we should send the card straight to them today! They are a credit to the school and to your teachers!"
In DT, our year 2 children have been learning about the importance of a balanced diet. As part of this learning, they explored the hidden sugars in foods and drinks by looking at the sugar contents on packaging. The children designed, planned, created and evaluated their own healthy wraps. The children used their writing skills to record their learning.
