Year 6

"The beginning of wisdom is this: Get wisdom, and whatever you get, get understanding." - Proverbs 4:7

Welcome to Term 2 in our Year 6 class. Our teachers are Mrs Bull and Mrs Stinga.

This term we are learning all about The Windrush Generation through lots of fiction, non-fiction and poetry books, such as 'Stories of the Windrush Generation', 'Windrush Child' and the poetry book 'Talking Turkeys' by Benjamin Zephaniah. Our Guided Reading class text is Coming to England by Floella Benamin.

Our PE day for this term is Monday. Please could the children come to school dressed in their PE kit on this day.

Our school Gospel Virtues this term are Intentional and Prophetic, and the children will be encouraged and be given house points and INSPIRED points to demonstrate these virtues every day in school.
