We have settled in well to our first term of primary 2 and we been learning a lot!

In maths we have been learning about 2D and 3D shapes, symmetry and directions.

We have learnt a lot of new sounds and tricky words in literacy and are enjoying reading and writing every day.

In topic we have been learning all about our local area in the past and present.
