Welcome Back Street Detectives

Welcome back  it looks like you’ve have had a lovely and exciting summer as the children have told us all about their adventures.

This half term we are going to be ‘Street Detectives’.  We are investigating the local area to find out all about the different types of houses, commercial buildings, churches, the types of vehicles that use our roads and the local amenities, and this has changed over time.

This morning we have enjoyed a walk along Melbourne Avenue and through the park.  We were fortunate with the weather and saw many different things on our way.  During DT this afternoon we made a street map of the route we took and have started to make the different types of buildings that we saw on our route.

Over the next few weeks we will be exploring the different buildings, their uses and why our local area is made that way that it is.

You can see how enthusiastic the children are to begin this topic in the photographs below.

Can you tell us what your favourite building or place is in the local area and why you like it?

Ms. Tuck, Miss Fretton and the Year 2 Team.
