6G

Welcome to 6G!

Welcome to 6G. Our class teacher is Miss Gibson and we are really lucky to be supported by Mrs Ellis who also teaches 6G on a Wednesday and Thursday afternoon, as well as a Friday morning. There are currently 30 children in our class.  

 

In year 6, our timetable works slightly differently to the rest of the school as we teach in target groups.  This is so that we can work together at a level suitable to our ability to help prepare us for the important assessments in May.  This year, the tests are Monday 13th May to Thursday 16th May 2019. 

Our Vision

That children, staff, governors and parents work in partnership to create an inspirational learning environment where individuals are given the tools to reach their full potential.

 

Our Values - The 5R's

Build positive relationships;

Develop resilience;

Show respect and thought for all;

Are never afraid to take a risk;

Take care and responsibility for themselves and others.

 

The 5 Golden Rules

Recognise the voice and values of friendship

Understand that we are all individual and unique

Learn from your mistakes and always have a go

Everyone matters and we should show that we care

Stick with it and never give up

WWI - 100 Years - Remembrance

This week, pupils have been learning about WWI - specifically the end of WWI in 1918. A link to the Rights Respecting Ambassadors page below will show how the whole school has marked this significant anniversary. 

Pupils in Year 6 have  have been learning about Remembrance and the important jobs women carried out during WWI. They have written a war poem in the style of War Girl by Jesse Pope, shared and discussed the text 'The tomb of the Unknown Soldier', found out about the work of Florence Cordell, as well as writing messages of thanks and remembrance on crosses for fallen soldiers - which were laid at the memorial in Stapleford this afternoon during a short service; attended by members of Year 6, who are some of our Rights Respecting Ambassadors.
