Summer Term message from Mr Swift:
Welcome to the Summer everyone! I hope everyone has enjoyed their break and is raring to go for a big term ahead in Year 6!
This half term is as busy as ever! Our topic for this term is 'Britain at War' and the children will have the opportunity to explore the role Britain played in both World Wars, as well as the significant impact these events had upon our world today. To supplement this, we have a trip planned to the Imperial War Museum in Manchester during the second half term, where children can take part in an interactive experience and learn from experts. We will also be taking part in our Forest School session in that same half term and furthering our knowledge and understating of evolution and inheritance in wildlife and plants. Sports Day will be here soon enough and we hope to make our final one a day to remember, showcasing all of our sporting prowess, as well as our teamwork, respect and sportsmanship.
SATs are just around the corner and there is a lot of preparation to be done. The children have worked so hard and can be extremely proud of their efforts so far.....just a little further!

If you need any help or have any questions, please do not hesitate to contact.

Y6 - Bridge designers, architects and builders!
Posted: Feb 15, 2024 by: Lindsay Walton (L.Walton) on: Year 6 Blog
Over the past few weeks Y6 have been taking part in a project all about bridges in their Design and Technology lessons. We have been researching, comparing and discussing different types of bridges. We have been thinking about why and where they are used. Y6 had to design a prototype and build a bridge of their choice. They tested it's effectiveness (strength) by seeing how many coins it could hold. Great investigating Y6! Challenge - how many famous bridge designers do you know?
