Dinosaur Habitats – Mole Class
For our science learning today, we have been learning all about the habitats that different dinosaurs would live in. Can you remember all of the things that living things need in their habitat? I just wanted to say a HUGE thank you for the shoeboxes that were brought in – the children absolutely loved transforming them into their own dinosaur habitat! (Miss Heafford)
Mole Class – Fossils
As part of our science week, we have been looking at the difference between living, dead or never alive. Today, we focussed on fossils. We had a look at some real fossils. There were ammonites, clam shells and even a trilobite! The children handled these very carefully and enjoyed looking at the intricate details. Then, the children had lots of fossil activities to have fun with. I wonder what fun science activities we will get up to tomorrow… (Miss Heafford)

Year 2 – RE lesson
For our RE lesson this afternoon, the Year 2’s all came together to learn how Hindus celebrate the Holi Festival. We built a shrine for the God, Vishnu. We used scarves to symbolise the powdered paint which is thrown during the Holi Festival. We then listened to a traditional piece of Indian music and learnt an Indian dance. I wonder if you can carry on learning it at home… (Miss Heafford) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zodMIu0_CfI

Mole Class Photos
‘This week, we have been busy making our very own moles. We collected soil from the playground to mix into our paint and used this to create our mole hills. Then, we scrunched up some newspaper and used this to make the face of the mole. We covered this using black tissue paper and then added the final details.’ (Miss Heafford)
