Year 2 Week 13 Newsletter

5th December 2020

Dear Parent/Guardian,

The end of term draws near, ushering in a time of well deserved rest.

We encourage the children to ‘hang in there’ as we continue on our learning journey.

Did you know that you could make a rain cloud in a jar? Well, the children did exactly that by conducting a simple fun experiment. Doing experiments helps develop a child's resourcefulness and also nurtures intellectual curiosity, helping children acquire new ways of asking questions and understanding the world.

Have a look at their work below;
