Year 2 RE and PSHE
Year 2 have really enjoyed learning all about angels and how they bring us good news. We have learnt about Elizabeth and Zechariah and Mary and Joseph. We role played the story to see how Mary and Joseph would feel hearing the news they were going to have a baby! In PSHE Year 2 have been looking at belonging and how we all belong to different groups. We have been comparing our families and how they are all different but all filled with love! Look at our wonderful houses we made with our families inside.
