Year 6
In Year 6, we have Mrs Biddle and Mrs King teaching 6KB, and Miss Deeny teaching 6SD. We are also really lucky to have Mrs Wolfe supporting us.
We are fortunate enough to have PE and Science subject specialists visit weekly from Studley High School to teach Upper Key Stage 2.
Autumn Term: Voyages
Year 6 have been thinking about migration and what it might be like to come to an unfamiliar country. We will discuss the importance of being tolerant of different cultures and beliefs to refelect the multicultural world we live in. We will think about how it might feel, the challenges people might face, the reasons people might choose to move to a new country and what they might have left behind. The texts used to support our learning this half term is The Arrival written by Shaun Tan and Coming to England by Floella Benjamin. In addition we will also be exploring the story of the Windrush.
The Circulatory System will be a focus in Science this half term.
In RE we will be considering the question: 'How does faith help people when life gets hard?'
Other areas of the curriculum are embedded within our Voyages theme.
PE days are on a Tuesday and children are expected to wear their kit to school and have shin pads and studded boots.
