Our Class Vision – Guided by Our School Values

In Year 2, we live out our school values every day:

• Aspire – We always try our best and aim high in everything we do.
• Belong – We work together as a team, support each other, and celebrate everyone's unique contributions.
• Care – We show kindness, empathy, and respect to ourselves, each other, and the world around us.
• Discover – We are curious learners who ask questions, explore new ideas, and enjoy learning new things.
• Excellence – We take pride in our work, celebrate our achievements, and never stop striving to improve.

In Year 2, children explore a variety of habitats, deepening their understanding of the natural world. Through this, they learn about the importance of their role in protecting our planet and the ways we can all help care for our environment!

We respect each others' views, beliefs and talents; learning from each other and inspiring each other by our achievements both in and out of school.

Throughout our time in Year 2 we develop our independence and resilience to solve problems in preparation for our move to Key Stage 2.
