Year 2
Welcome to the Year 2 Page
Hello and welcome to the Year 2 page.
The Year 2 teachers are Miss Morrow (Class 2M) and Mrs Davison (Class 2D). Our teaching assistants are Mrs Lingard Cook and Miss Lonsdale.
We are all very excited about this year as there are lots of great projects, fun learning and
experiences to be had.
Throughout the year, we will add details of the projects we will be covering to the website so that you can keep up to date with what the children are learning. A curriculum newsletter and knowledge organiser will be sent out at the start of each term with these details on too. We will also regularly update our class page with photos of the learning experiences so you can see what we have been up to.

Learning Launch. Today, we boarded Kidgate Airways Flight 1 to our dream holiday destination. We had to make sure we had our passports and boarding passes, before travelling to the airport, waiting in the lounge area, and going through security and passport control. Once we boarded the plane, we securely stored our luggage, fastened our seat-belts, and got ready to go on our adventure. We had a wonderful flight and it was very exciting looking out of the window at the houses getting smaller and smaller as we flew over them. We had a refreshments break and a quick nap when the seat-belt light went off, then got ready for a bumpy descent. We can’t wait to find out what it is like in the different countries we have landed in!
Year 2 have been busy investigating the nature around us at Kidgate Primary Academy.
