Welcome to Year 6!

Welcome to the Year 6 page! We shall keep updating this page to show everyone the exciting things we have been doing and learning about.

We have returned to school after an extended time learning from home and everyone is settling in to our new normal well in our Year 6 bubble! Please keep checking back on our page for updates and information as well as for examples of our fantastic work!

For our Harvest celebration I asked the children what they were most thankful for this year and their responses blew me away! They were not only able to give examples of things they were thankful for on a personal level, but also what they felt had benefited other people around the world. They then produced some beautiful artwork which is displayed outside our classroom. Well done, Year 6.

Keeping Active 

Leader in Me

On a daily basis, the children try to demonstrate our core values within school. As we aim to practise them so often, they become good habits that we can use not only in school but also at home too. 

 

• Habit 1: Be Proactive (You’re in Charge)
• Habit 2: Begin With the End in Mind (Have a Plan)
• Habit 3: Put First Things First (Work First, Then Play)
• Habit 4: Think Win-Win (Everyone Can Win)
• Habit 5: Seek First to Understand, Then to Be Understood(Listen Before You Talk)
• Habit 6: Synergise (Together Is Better)
• Habit 7: Sharpen the Saw (Balance Feels Best)

Growth Mindset

 

This year we will be helping the children to develop a Growth Mindset.  This aims to increase their resilience, perseverance and independence in their learning.  Further information can be found by following the link below.
