World Book Day 2023
Today we have celebrated World Book Day at school. The children all looked amazing when we got together in the hall, to share a story. The staff at school have dressed to be the colour monsters from the book the ‘Colour Monster’. Mrs Foster read it to the whole school.
All classes have been carrying out World Book Day activities in their classes and some classes took part in a live lesson with hundreds of other schools.
Hopefully the children have come home inspired to read more for pleasure! 
The Animal Man comes to Haughmond
Today we had a visit from Simon, the Animal Man, to support our learning about animal classification in Science. We learned about mammals, reptiles, amphibians and some invertebrates and some of us even faced our fears and held creatures we were nervous of meeting!
Stars of the Week
Well done to our Star pupils this week.
Our Stars of the Week
We are proud to introduce our Bomere Heath Stars of the Week!
Winter Science
This week we have been learning about winter in our environment and the winter weather. We have explored the signs of winter in our school garden and how it has changed since we last looked at our environment in December. We collected leaves, seeds and other things that we could find and made ice windows.
Happy New Year Haughmond!
Welcome back to a new year and new term. I hope you had a fabulous Christmas!
We’ve got lots of exciting things planned this term to help our learning about our new topic – Voyages of Discovery.
We are going to be learning about significant explorers and adventurers, their achievements and the impact that they made on the world around them. We will be looking in depth at the lives of Christopher Columbus, Ernest Shackleton and Felicity Aston. In Science we will be learning about the Animal Kingdom, and will have a visit from Simon Airey, the animal man, to enhance our learning.
Our P.E. days have changed this term, while swimming lessons are ongoing. Year 2 will be swimming each Friday for 5 weeks from 17th February. Children will need to come to school in their P.E. kit every Thursday and Friday until Easter. For this term there will no P.E. on a Monday.
To find out more about the focus in our areas of learning this term, our topic map and subject knowledge organisers are available at the following links.
