Welcome to Year 6!
Happy New Year from the Year 6 team and welcome to the Spring term! We are thoroughly excited to be working with your children and have many enthralling topics planned for them.
This half term, our learning in English will be centred around Shackleton's Journey by William Grill. In Project we will be focussing on the Antarctic to consolidate our learning in English. In Maths, we are beginning our learning with looking at fractions and measurement. In Science, we will be looking at the classifying living things and their habitats.
Please keep referring to our webpage to keep updated with Year 6.
