Owls 2026 - 2027
Mr Morris
Welcome to Owls Class!

Mr Morris is the Class Teacher.
Owls will be beginning an exciting journey back in time as we explore The Stone Age to the Iron Age. In English, we will be reading and studying Stone Age Boy, using the story to develop our reading, writing, vocabulary and storytelling skills. The children will have opportunities to explore what life was like during the Stone Age and use their imagination to create their own writing inspired by the characters and events in the book.
In Science, we will be investigating forces and magnets. We will explore how different forces affect objects, including pushes and pulls, and investigate the fascinating properties of magnets through practical experiments and investigations.
In Art and Design, we will be exploring shell structures, learning how structures are designed, constructed and strengthened. The children will have the opportunity to investigate different materials and techniques before designing and creating their own structures.
In Maths, we will follow the White Rose Maths schemes of learning. Year 2 will develop their understanding of place value, addition and subtraction, shape and money, while Year 3 will focus on place value, addition and subtraction, multiplication and division and shape as the term progresses. We will use a mixture of practical activities, reasoning and problem-solving to help the children develop confidence and fluency in mathematics.
Across all of our subjects, we will encourage the children to be curious, creative and resilient learners, making links between their learning wherever possible.

Just a little reminder about attendance – school can’t authorise term-time holidays and ten consecutive missed register marks or ten missed register marks (not consecutive) in a rolling ten-week period will result in fixed penalty notices.
