Year 6 Archive

The children have had lots of fun this week carrying out a variety of experiments and learning about different scientists.

Elm class had great fun exploring how much weight a giant helium balloon could lift.

Mr Dale kicked off science week with a jam packed assembly with a variety of fun experiments.

A group of Year 6 children attended the Commonwealth service in New Romney.  The children read poems that had been prepared in school.

Elm class had great fun dressing up as their favourite book characters.  They also enjoyed reading to children in the reception classes and year 1.  One of our activities included decorating our class door as the ‘Chokey’ from Matilda.

Oak class enjoyed reading ‘Scribbleboy’ and writing about their favourite characters.

Morgan has written a fantastic suspense story this week.  Keep up the good work!

Year 6 celebrated the end of their history topic in style!  Many of the children dressed up in a WW2 themed costume and spent the day carrying out a variety of activities linked to the topic.  These included: baking Ration Cookies, with limited ingredients;  needlework, for ‘Make Do and Mend’; planting seeds, like the Land Girls, and in the afternoon, parents were invited in to see all of the fabulous learning that has taken place.

A great time was had by all.

Year 6 visited the Three Hills for Safety in Action.  During our visit, the children learned some useful safety tips about railways, drugs, first aid and many more.

Here is our Topic Overview for Term 4. Many of these topics will take us up to the SATs, midway through Term 5.Topic Overview Term 4

Well done to Bronwyn, who is a star every single week!  Bronwyn is a model pupil and we are incredibly proud of her!

Here are some ideas for our WW2 Home Learning.  If your child decides to make a model, they will need to write about this in his/her Home Learning Journal and include a photo (we are happy to take the photo at school).
