Yellow Class (Y2) had a great morning at the Sutton Ecology Centre. We explored lots of different habitats to find which minibeasts live there. We went pond dipping and found lots of tadpoles and in the woodland we found a frog, toad and newt!

Yellow Class (y2) have had a busy day finishing off their D.T topic by creating and evaluating our fairground wheels. We were all very proud of ourselves as we all got our wheels to spin successfully! 😊🎡 Kapow Primary

Today, Yellow Class (y2) began the second part of their 'Plants' Science topic and were looking at the difference between seeds and bulbs. We explored which foods contain seeds or are a bulb before observing inside them and recording our findings through drawings. White Rose Education
