Year 6

September 2025 Round-up

What an amazing first month we've had in Year 6! The children have settled into new routines and expectations with enthusiasm and resilience and we’re so excited for the year ahead!

This month our class had the fantastic opportunity to visit Hangar 42, to support their learning with their topic of WWII. The children were able to step back in time and experience what life was like during World War II. They explored fascinating exhibits, saw aircraft up close, and even tried out some interactive activities that brought history to life. The staff at Hangar 42 were full of praise for our class. They said the children were not only the most well-behaved group they had welcomed, but also the most knowledgeable, asking thoughtful questions and sharing what they had already learned in school. It was a wonderful day out, and we are so proud of how brilliantly the children represented our school ✈️😀

In PE, the children have been working hard in both gymnastics and dance. They’ve loved showing off their balance, strength, and creativity, and it’s been brilliant to see their confidence and teamwork grow.

In English, we have been exploring our class book Running Wild by Michael Morpurgo. The children have been using roleplay and freeze-frames to bring the chapters to life. This hands-on drama work has really helped them deepen their understanding of the story and has inspired some fantastic creative writing.
