Year 2 – Grace Darling Museum

What a fantastic day we have had today! The children have very much enjoyed themselves. After a long journey on the coach, we first looked at some artefacts and recalled lots of facts about the historical event in the Grace Darling Museum. We then visited Grace Darling’s memorial in the grounds of St Aidan’s Church. In Art, our topic is ‘Fun At The Seaside’ which is all about Zoe Emma Scott and her paintings of the seaside at South Tyneside, so we spent our afternoon at the beach. Luckily, it didn’t rain and we had a lovely time with our friends, bringing out our towels to sit on them and have lunch. We then looked for some objects at the beach, ready to use for making fossils in our Science lesson tomorrow and we even had time to play with our friends. Finally, before getting back to the coach, we all got an ice cream, which was what we needed to finish off our fabulous day. Miss Ho, Miss Greenwell and Mrs Newton are extremely proud of the way our children represented our school as even members of the public commented upon our polite manners and fantastic behaviour. A huge well done Year 2!
