  • Monday 2 February 2026 F2 Historians F2 have enjoyed becoming Historians and learning all about dinosaurs. We have visited a virtual museum to look at dinosaur fossils and we have become palaeontologists, excavating fossils (chocolate chips) from rocks (cookies). We have worked collaboratively and created dinosaur sculptures out of junk modelling, and we've also grouped dinosaurs into carnivores, herbivores and omnivores depending on their diet. Did you know T-Rex's teeth are the same size as bananas! It's safe to say that F2 children are dinosaur experts now.
