Welcome to Year 6 - 2025!

This Year, the Year 6 Team includes Mr Neilson-Wade, Mrs Hall and Mr French.

Mr Neilson-Wade will be teaching in class all day on Monday, Tuesday, Thursday, Friday and Wednesday morning. Mr French will teach the class on Wednesday afternoons. 

Mrs Hall will be in class every morning supporting the children's learning in reading, writing and maths. 

During the first term, our topic is WW2 and learning will be linked across the curriculum. We will also be identifying gaps in English and Maths and providing opportunities to re-visit and consolidate specific areas of learning. 

After the Christmas holiday's we will begin our "Facing the Elements" topic which is a Geography unit based on biomes around the world. The children will use their knowledge of weather, climate and habitats to support research based activities on a variety of biomes around the world. 

If you have any questions, queries or concerns please can you can contact me directly in the first instance by email:

Our PE lessons are on Monday and Thursday. Please ensure that you arrive in your PE Kit, which can include black shorts, tracksuit bottoms, white t-shirt, a zip up hoody or jacket and trainers. Do not wear football shirts as this is not part of our PE kit.

Homework

Homework will be put on the Year 6 class page of Google Classrooms every Friday afternoon. Homework will always be linked to learning which we have been completing in school. A date for completion will be attached to the activity.
