Second Class Sponsored Walk

We split into two groups with Mrs Dermody and Miss Byrne and Ella Rose was our experienced guide! She knows the castle well, and under her guidance we […]
Persuasive Writing!
Second class had a little fun with their English writing this week!

We are going to use these to persuade each other that our toy is the Best Buy 🤩

Marshmallow Houses 😄
To start our Science week, second class completed a number of investigations including “Baling Soda Balloons” and “Bouncing Raisins” which involved just baking soda and vinegar!
