Welcome to Year 6!

Our essential question this term:

Why did Oliver ask for more?

Thank you for visiting our Year 6 class page. We have a busy term ahead studying the Victorians with so much to look forward to including our day at PGL, a trip to Burghley House at Stamford and a performance at Christmas! We have missed out on so many of our favourite things in order to keep everyone safe and I am really hoping we can now enjoy as many experiences as possible in your final year at primary school. 

Below I have attached an overview of our Autumn term. There is also a word web for you to use to learn some new vocabulary that will help you. 

I am really excited to be back in school and can't wait to see you all in our classroom.

Our Values

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.
