Autumn Term message from Mr Swift:  

Welcome back everyone and I trust you have had a wonderful summer! During this first term of Year 6 we will be getting to grips with our new environment and routines and hoping to hit the ground running! Our main learning this term will be centred around our 'Britain at War' topic covering both the First and Second World Wars. We will dive deeply into causes and consequences and enrich our topic by visiting the Imperial War Museum and marking Remembrance Day in November. In Year 6 we focus on our Christian Value of 'Self-Control' and have set to work both discussing this, as well as putting it into action.  

Please find below the list of useful documents to support your child in their learning this term. Thank you for all your support and hard work and we hope to have another busy and successful term ahead.

If you have any questions, please feel free to ask.

Mr Swift

Electrical Circuits

Posted: Dec 5, 2024 by: year6 teacher (R.Swift) on: Year 6 Blog

In Year 6 we have been exploring electrical circuits. We have created our own, used different components and worked scientifically to answer questions posed. We formulated a hypothesis, tested this and explained out findings. Well done scientists!
