Welcome to our Year 1 and 2 class page.

        Through our whole school spring topic

'Our Planet'

we aim to keep learning creative, relevant and fun.

We will use this lovely book to enrich our science based topic where year 1 and 2 will be exploring the amazing world of plants and minibeasts.

         Alongside this book we will be reading and working from the following texts

In our second half of the term we will travel back in time to learn why castles were once built on our lands. 

Our topic will have a 'fantastic finish' where we visit Beeston Castle to explore the ruins and go on a plant and mini beast hunt in the grounds.

Take a look at our 'Spring Term Learning Overview' and 'Knowledge Organiser'  at the top of this page to see what we will be covering in our creative curriculum.
