Hi Class 6,

I have added a 'Home Learning' folder below.  Here you will find the list of suggested extra activities and links to some useful websites.  If the school remains closed for a longer period of time, more activities will be added.  

Kind regards,

Year 6 School Elections 2019

To coincide with the General Election, Year 6 grouped themselves into 4 'parties' - Pink Party, Purple Party, Orange Party and Grey Party. They decided what they would like to do if they were in charge of the country. They considered key areas such as Education, Healthcare, Law and Order. They also thought carefully about where money would come from to pay for the changes they wanted to make. In assembly, each party presented their manifesto and spent a week campaigning to secure votes from the rest of the school. On Thursday 12th December, the whole school placed their votes in the ballot box - there was even a postal vote from a child who was ill!

The winners were....Pink Party! Congratulations to the Pink Party, and to the whole of Class 6 for working so hard on their campaigns.

Enablers Day

Our first Enablers Day this year was on perseverance and optimism. In Class 6, we did some optimistic drama based around a story called 'The Party'. We recreated an alternative, positive ending to the story using freeze frames and other drama conventions. In another activity, we planned out how we would like our future lives to be, by being optimistic about what the future could hold for us. For perseverance, we were given jigsaw puzzles with the pictures covered up. We had to piece together the jigsaw without knowing what the full picture was! This definitely put our perseverance skills to the test, but none of us gave up! 

Welcome back Class 6! I hope you have all had a lovely half term holiday.

Our topic this half term is Crime and Punishment. Please find further information on our topic web below.

PE will be on Tuesdays with Mr Lindley and on Fridays with Miss Saxelby. Please ensure you have a fully labelled PE kit in school.

Visit to the National Holocaust Centre, Laxton

Year 6 visited the National Holocaust Centre in Laxton as part of their topic on World War 2. They followed the journey of a young Jewish boy called Leo and found out what happened to his life during the Holocaust. They spoke to a real life Holocaust survivor, who told his story of having to leave all his family and the abuse he suffered in the hands of the Germans. They then laid a stone on the memorial to symbolise the 1.5million children who were killed during the Holocaust.
