Say I have 2 tables:
Table 1
Name - Toys - broken - recurrence
Jack    6      4        0 
John    8      3        1
Mark    8      2        2
Jack    4      2        1
John    3      3        1
Mark    6      0        2

Table 2:
Name  -  Toys  -   recurrence

COlumn Name: name
Column Toys: average of (Jack, John and Mark)'s toys (each a  different record).
Column recurrence: average of the 'broken' field when the recurrence is 1;

My main issue here is how to write a statement to insert data from table 1 
into table 2 with the correct calculations. I was assuming there would be 2
'Where' clauses needed.. but I am not too sure how to write the statement.

I know this will give me the averages in the Toys column per person:
insert into table2 (Toys, recurrence, name) select name,avg(Toys),recurrence from table1
group by name;

But how to I edit this statement so that it will also give me the recurrence column 
which has a different 'where' statement, as in where recurrence='1';

I think you need to learn to write at least a statement to work on, without any effort noones will assist you. So post the statement that you have done so far and show the errors for it.
