Year 6 have enjoyed a focused and productive week balancing SATs preparation with exciting learning across the curriculum. From researching Charles Darwin and designing websites to teamwork-filled rounders matches, the children have shown confidence, creativity and fantastic support for one another.

Year 6 have had a brilliant week exploring decimals, continuing Felix’s journey in Once, and celebrating World Book Day. From thoughtful discussions about bravery to creating calming worry stones and sharing stories with Reception, the class have shown kindness and curiosity.

Year 5 have had a packed week of learning and reflection, from mental health sessions and challenging division, to suspenseful storytelling, reproduction in science, and the influence of the Greeks and Romans. A brilliant mix of wisdom, curiosity and resilience!

Year 6 have been busy showing just how far they’ve come, with assessment success, outdoor PE fun, and thoughtful discussions inspired by Wonder. They’ve also created worry stones in PSHE – a colourful reminder that it’s okay to feel all the feels.

This term, we have delved into the classic novel Wuthering Heights. We focused on the intriguing scene where Mrs. Linton looks into the mirror.

By building tension with sensory details, pacing, and unexpected reveals, we’re practicing keeping readers on the edge of their seats.

We’ve had such a great start to the school year, and we can’t wait to see what this year brings!

On the final day we even crossed the border into Belgium to visit a chocolate factory!

It is the New Year and Year 6 are back ready for the new term!
