Autumn 1: 

Week 1: 

Welcome Back, Year 6!

It has been a fantastic start to the new school year for Year 6! The children have settled back into school really well and have quickly established our classroom routines and expectations. It has been wonderful to see them demonstrating such a positive attitude towards their learning and taking on the responsibilities that come with being our oldest pupils.

In English, we have been discussing our writing expectations and focusing on producing work to a high standard. We are also working hard to ensure that our handwriting is neat, joined and consistent.

In Maths, we have started our new Place Value unit. The children have been exploring numbers up to 10 million, developing their understanding of the value of each digit and how numbers can be represented in different ways.

In PE, we have begun our football and basketball topics. The children have made a fantastic start and have really enjoyed getting active. They have also been looking very smart in their new PE T-shirts!

We are incredibly proud of how well Year 6 have started the year and are looking forward to all the exciting learning and opportunities ahead.

Week 2: 

🌟 This Week in Year 6

It has been another fantastic week in Year 6, with lots of exciting learning taking place!

🔬 Science
This week, we have been learning all about static electricity. The children then put their learning into practice by carrying out an experiment to investigate static electricity. They really enjoyed testing their ideas and seeing the results for themselves!

🎨 Art
In Art, we have started creating our pieces ready to share with you all at our Harvest Assembly. We have been experimenting with a range of different materials to create interesting textures and effects. We can't wait for you to see the finished pieces!

📚 English
In English, the children have been revisiting their learning about nouns. They have excelled at retrieving their prior knowledge and have shown a fantastic understanding of the different types of nouns.

Well done, Year 6, on another brilliant week! 🌟
