🎭📚✨ National Poetry Day 2026 ✨📚🎭

This morning, we celebrated National Poetry Day with a fantastic whole-school assembly, and what a performance it was! 🌟

Each year group took to the stage to perform a poem they had been rehearsing during their Readers’ Theatre sessions. From wonderful expression and clear voices to brilliant actions and confident performances, our children absolutely brought the words to life! 🎤👏 Their fantastic oracy skills were on full display and we were so proud of every single performer. ❤️

Our poetry line-up was:

❤️✨ Year 1 – All of Me
🦉🐱 Year 2 – The Owl and the Pussycat
🌿🐞 Year 3 – Nature Trail
🐉✨ Year 4 – The Tale of Custard the Dragon
🎉🗣️ Year 5 – The Word Party
⚠️📜 Year 6 – A Cautionary Verse

A huge well done to all of our poetry superstars! 🌟 What a brilliant way to celebrate the joy of poetry, performance and spoken language across St Mary’s. 🎬🎭📖

🔢✨ Mastering Number in Year 2! ✨🔢

Today, Year 2 have been busy exploring all the different ways we can make 6 using our Rekenreks! 🧮

The children were challenged to make 6 across two rows in as many different ways as they could. They then had to convince their partner that they had definitely made 6, using the number bond facts we learnt from Numberblocks on Monday! 🗣️💭

We loved seeing some fantastic mathematical thinking, reasoning and explaining! 🌟👏

Year 2 RE Learning🌈

In our RE lesson, we explored the idea of making choices and turning back to God. We linked our learning to the story of Noah’s Ark, thinking carefully about the choices Noah had to make and what he may have said or felt.

Using our Oracy skills, the children acted out different scenarios and used stem sentences to help them think deeply about – What would Noah say? They shared their ideas, listened carefully to different perspectives and explained their thinking. We also explored how saying sorry, making good choices and turning back to God can help to repair and strengthen relationships.

This week, Year 2 used cubes and Base 10 equipment to compare two different numbers with their groups. We reinforced our previous learning about grouping into tens and ones, using practical resources to help us understand the value of each digit.

The children used Multi-Link cubes to build and compare numbers, helping them to clearly see the different groups of tens and ones. They enjoyed working collaboratively, explaining their thinking to their groups and using mathematical language to compare numbers. Who doesn’t love the opportunity to draw on a table? 📚
