YEAR GROUPS
Year 6
Welcome to our Year 6 page. My name is Mr Bruce and I am the class teacher.
I am supported in class by Mrs Chaudhari and Miss O’Rourke, our Learning Support Assistants.
As we are the eldest in the school we know we are role models and try to lead by example. We try our best in every lesson and know that making mistakes is an important part of learning. Our library day is on Monday and we can choose books to take home with us. We love reading and being read to! Some of the books we have read in class include: Harry Potter and the Philosopher’s Stone, Krindlekrax, Coraline, King Kong, The Errand and many more!
Click on the link below to see the Year 6 Long Term Plan:
All Y6 children have access to online learning from home. They will have a list of websites sent home with login information. Please ask if you need a copy.
They can use these websites at home every day to help with their learning. Even a small amount of practice at home will help them in school.
PE is on Tuesday. We provide a PE kit for every child but s/he will need pumps or trainers.
Swimming is on Wednesday. Every child will need to have a swimming costume, a towel and a swimming cap. Children can bring goggles if they wish but do not have to.
Please ensure your child arrives at school at 8.45 am every day in full school uniform and black shoes. Long hair must be tied back and plaited, please.
If you have any questions about Year 6, please make an appointment at the office to see Mr Bruce.
Please look below to see how much we enjoyed being in Year 5 and now we are looking forward to Year 6!

Mental Health and Wellbeing
We are now the Rocket Resilience Champions of the school. We enjoyed a one day interactive training course which taught us about mental health and resilience.
Science
During our Year 5 Unit on Changing Materials, we used our scientific enquiry skills to find out about:
– materials that dissolve in liquids to make solutions
– methods we can use to separate mixtures
– mixing some materials can result in the formation of a new material
It was so exciting to mix vinegar with bicarbonate of soda. It produced a gas and with this gas, we even inflated a balloon!
