It’s one of our favourite times of year at Ramsgate Arts Primary School … the Christmas Production!
This year we will be performing Lights, Camel, Action! On Monday 12th December at 9am. Details about costumes and parts will be sent out next week.
Join the jam-packed cast of nativity celebrities as they celebrate Jesus' birth with a dazzling dance show!
A big thank you to all of our super parents and carers for helping the children to build their amazing Bug Hotels. I'm sure that the 'micro-habitats' that we have created will provide brilliant and comfortable homes for all manner of mini-bests and help to promote bio-diversity in our gardens and the school grounds.
This Friday 21st October is crazy hair day! The craziest hair in each class wins a prize!
Children are welcome to wear fancy dress, donations are well received but not required to join in the fun!
Year 2 are going to be designing and making bug hotels. We’d love it if you could collect and bringing in things to make them with.
We will need:
· straw/ newspaper
· large twigs
· pine cones
· bamboo canes (or any hollow gardening canes)
· 1 or 2 litre plastic drinks bottles
· empty cardboard 1 litre juice cartons
Please bring in anything you can by Tuesday 18th October. Every child will need either an empty 1 or 2 litre plastic bottle or an empty 1 litre juice carton as these will form the basis of their bug hotel.
Thank you!
Year 2 Team
Hello parents and carers! We are going to be putting up a regular blog post letting you know what we are covering in our Maths curriculum on a weekly basis. As part of this we will provide a link or two to some games that will support your child in their learning. Read on for this week's focus:
Thursday 6th October is National Poetry Day. To celebrate this special day, we are excited to announce a school-wide poetry competition. Read on to discover more...
Recently we have been learning about continents. The children loved listening to and practising these songs to help them remember the continent names, and some facts about them.
Have a listen:

This term we have been exploring some of the different habitats around the world. Today we began looking the habitats that we find around us in Kent. We found out about woods, gardens and rock pools before creating our own rock pool art to display in the classroom.
This term our topic is Habitats as Homes! A science-based topic focussed on where animals live. We will study habitats both locally and world-wide. Therefore, our first Love to Learn project is to create a habitat in a shoebox. How imaginative can you make your habitat? Due Friday 14th October.
An enormous welcome to the first art competition of the new school year! We hope you enjoyed our assembly about the mysterious street artist Banksy, and fabulous graphic artist Barbara Kruger.Read on for more details...
Year 2 are pleased to announce the return of shared reading with your child in school. This will take place on Thursdays from 2:45 until 3:00. We look forward to seeing you then!
This week we created some art inspired by Daniel Mackie, an illustrator who draws animal's habitats using pencil and watercolour inside the shape of the animal. We did this in groups using big sheets of paper and outlines of fish.
