Year 6

Congratulations to Y6 who are the overall winners of this half term’s class attendance race. They were delighted to receive a frisby each as a reward. Well done!

Y6 spent an afternoon at the library today. They returned to school with a selection of books of their choice after enjoying listening to a chapter or two of our class novel - Street Child. 

Y6 spent an interesting morning with Jenny from United Utilities. They learnt about saving water and where our water comes from. We were all surprised to learn that running the tap whilst brushing our teeth wastes on average 18 litres of water!

As part of our RE work on being good shepherds, Y3 spent a lovely afternoon in Y6 getting to know their new “buddies”. Each younger child has been assigned a Y6 role model to keep them safe and offer a friendly face to them in KS2. 

Year 6 enjoyed taking part in a lovely prayer and liturgy session this morning, planned and led by Ellie and Lexi. Their theme was “Following in God’s Footsteps”. The whole class experienced quiet reflection time in a circle and all the children responded and joined in by lighting a candle and…

Year 6 showed off their athleticism and enthusiasm with Mr Blanks on the yard today. They are aiming to run/power walk a mile every single day to get fit in our whole school Mile A Day Challenge. 100 miles in a 100 days......easy!

Our Y6 children have had a gorgeous day in the sun at St Bees as a treat for outstanding SATs results. We started our trip with a fun session in the pool at St Bees school then walked to the beach to continue our day. First stop was the park where packed lunches were devoured and then we ventured…

Our Y5 children enjoyed an afternoon sampling life in Y6. They used oil-pastels to create fantastic self-portraits of themselves - what an arty bunch! Then asked lots of sensible questions about Y6.

Mrs Taylor and Mrs Robson were delighted to take 8 of our Y6 boys to the Kwik Cricket Finals at Keswick. The boys played brilliantly and came runners up in their group, narrowly missing out on a place in the semi-final. The sun shone and we were able to enjoy a picnic between games. There was even…

Year 6 were joined by their parents for an afternoon creating Holy Spirit doves. The children enjoyed teaching their families about the gifts of the Holy Spirit and showing off their beautiful work and learning in their R.E. books. 

Year 6 have enjoyed learning about the 32 countries involved in the World Cup. They have plotted the countries on a world map and used our class atlases to research each country’s flag. The classroom was a riot of colour and paint as we enjoyed a morning of flag painting!
