As part of our Personal Development curriculum, every year class teams adopt a shared identity linked to an animal. Animals are chosen during transition visits prior to each new school year starting. Children learn how to be a good team and build a positive shared community for learning and growing together by taking inspiration from the characteristics of their animal.
For 2026 2027 Class 2 are our 'Starlings'
Starlings are known for their incredible murmurations - where they swoop and wheel together in synchronised flight, making amazing ariel displays. In Class 2 we develop how we can work as a team towards a common goal, helping each other learn, grow our confidence and have our own place in a team.
Starlings are often together and fly as a flock, in Class 2 we also see the benefit of working together and know that we can help each other to achieve great things when we are a team.
Starlings are highly intelligent - they have dynamic personalities but can also adapt to the environment around them. In Class 2 we too work hard, think deeply and learn how to adjust and adapt to problem solve and work things out.
