Year 6

Welcome to the Year 6 page

Class 7 is taught by Mr. Wilson and Class 8 is taught by Mrs. Foley. We are lucky to be supported by Miss Walton and Miss Coleman, who work as TAs in both classes. In addition, Miss Walton also teaches on several afternoons.

On a Thursday afternoon, Miss Farr teaches PE to both classes and Mrs. Mason, our music specialist, teaches music. We have an additional PE lesson on a Monday afternoon.

This term, we are currently finishing our geography topic which focuses on deserts and what it is like to live in a desert. We have started by learning about different biomes around the world and understanding specifically what a desert biome is like. We will learn about the physical and human features of deserts and will find out about these in the context of the Mojave Desert. At the end of our unit we will write persuasive letters to convince a family to move to the desert.

This half term is a very busy one for year 6. On May 11th we will start our SATs tests, so we have been working hard to prepare for these. The week after SATs we are travelling to PGL Caythorpe Court for our residential trip. After half term we will be extremely busy preparing our end of year production – Darwin Rocks!
