Year 6 Spring Term
This term pupils have been learning more about the natural world and linking this to our science topic of 'Evolution. Pupils have been outside on the school field searching for minibeasts to document, as well as studying what fossils are able to tell us about living things from the past. Pupils have also had the opportunity to learn more about road safety and spent a week riding their bikes on the local roads.
Year 6 Autumn Term
This term pupils have been learning all about contrasting weather and climates; discovering the Ancient Maya and writing about the wonderful world of Hugo Cabret based on the book. Pupils have enjoyed learning how to play netball and tag rugby, as well as a dance routine with Tracey. They have developed their understanding of musical notation and playing the keyboards within music. Plus they have been able to cut and join wood to make a toy shop sign within design technology lessons.
