We’ve been busy in Crew Goodyer this morning creating our time capsules filled with photographs, pledges and string to show how tall we are at the start of Year 2. It will be fun to see how much we have all grown when we open them up at the end of the year!
This morning Crew Flint, Crew Carr and Crew Jenkins came across to Norton Infant School to meet Crew Goodyer, Crew Tinker and Crew Thurman. We spent time getting to know each other and sharing stories. We can’t wait for our next crew buddy session.
This morning we had the challenge of making the longest paper chain in our crews. We could only use two pieces of poster paper, tape and scissors. We had to work really hard to communicate and work together. We all did a great job and surprisingly all ended up with the same length paper chain!
We are looking forward to our crew quiz tomorrow – I wonder who will win – Crew Tinker, Crew Goodyer or Crew Thurman?

What a wonderful week of ‘Final Words’ we have had!
I would just like to say a huge thank you to everybody who could make it this week to support the children. Class 6 really did themselves proud – they all presented so confidently and it was clear to see how much they all enjoyed the experience.
Well done everybody, you are all superstars!
A huge thank you to everyone who attended the year two presentation of learning this afternoon. I was so proud of the children for leading the whole presentation themselves and to hear them so clearly articulate their learning was fantastic.
If you scroll down I have linked in the glossary and task if you would like the children to share their learning with other special people at home.
Don’t forget our recipe books and shopping products are available via parent pay to order.
We hope you enjoyed it too.

This morning we have been exploring the work of Peter Thorpe, an American artist who creates abstract art and has created lots of artwork about space.
During our gallery walk we shared with our talk partners what we noticed, what we praised and what we wondered about each piece of artwork.
We are looking forward to creating our own pieces of space art using some of Peter Thorpe’s
techniques.
What a morning filled with dancing, singing and fun! We are feeling very proud of ourselves for completing our challenge to make sure someone from Year 2 was filling the dance floor at all times all the way till lunchtime!
Thank you to everyone who supported us in raising funds towards our end of year celebrations!

Dear Parents/carers,
During the next few weeks, our Year 2 children are preparing for their ‘Final Word’ presentation. This is a reflection on their Infant school years whereby they reflect on their character growth, academic success and the beautiful work that they have produced during their time at Norton Infant School. This is also a time to use their reflections to share why they are ready to take on their new challenge at Norton Junior School. This is something the children will be spending a lot of time on supported by their class teacher.
During their presentations, we would like to invite you to attend their Final Word along with their class teacher and possibly other members of staff too. Please fill out the form below by Friday 16th June so that staff can align times and dates for the year 2 pupils presentations.
Thank you for supporting the children with this important part of their time in year two.

I asked my crew this morning what did they think was the most important thing they had learned so far at our school. I shared the biggest thing I had learned was that I learn new and amazing things every day from my class, crew and people I work with but their responses just blew me away …
