Are you disappointed that we didn't get to finish our History learning about people from the past? We really  enjoyed learning about Emmeline Pankhurst and the Suffragettes. In the first lesson you were given the task of sorting photos of two significant women . We have learnt that one of them was Emmeline Pankhurst, but who was the other woman?

Watch the video below to learn all about another amazing woman in History!

Hello Year 2,
Firstly, let me say thank you to all the children who emailed me their work  about Ramadan last week. I was very impressed  with the quality of the work. A special  thank you to Amaan, Arush, Hassan, Rian and Zunash.
Here is their work!

This half term our enquiry question for RE is: 'Does regular praying help a Muslim in his/her daily life?'
It takes commitment for Muslims to pray several times a day. We are going to look at what commitment means and the different types of commitment you have, at home and when in school.
Look at the power point first then try the work sheet. Don't forget to email me  your questions and work. at: mrshalim@crumpsall.manchester.sch.uk
