Orange - Year 2

Welcome to Orange Class

Mr Rich and Mrs Young

We hope you are all keeping well and staying safe at home.

 Every Monday we will upload our new home learning activities. We understand that every household is different and these do not all need to be completed so pick and choose the ones your child is interested in and which suit your family life. They are also only suggested ideas so feel free to adapt them to suit your child's needs and interests.  There are also daily lessons available from BBC Bitesize, White Rose Maths and Oak National Academy (click HERE to access the home learning tab) if you would like to try them but again they are only suggestions for you to use if you wish. 

Thank you for all the hard work you have done so far. You are all doing a fantastic job. Please remember it is far more important for your child to have fun with their learning than anything else in this strange and difficult time.

We love hearing from you all and seeing your amazing work so don't forget to keep in touch by emailing orangeclass@mere.wilts.sch.uk

Take care, Mr Rich and Mrs Young.

We visited Mere Fire Station to talk about the Great Fire of London and fire safety in 1666 and 2019. We were shown around the fire station, the uniforms, the equipment, the alarm centre and the engine with all of its tools and gadgets!

A huge thank you to the firefighters Mr Barry and Mr Brundish (both parents of children at Mere School) for showing us around. The children got a huge amount of knowledge from the visit.

We went outside and explored the school grounds, searching for everyday materials and what they were being used for.

We found brick, rock, wood, plastic, glass, metal and rubber all being used for different things!
