Welcome to Year 6.  Mr Calder is the class teacher and is supported by Mrs Lewcock (three days a week), Mrs Boost and Mrs Stannard. In year 6 we study topics such as The Vikings, The Victorians and Australia.  In English we study themes such as Private Peaceful, Pig Heart Boy and The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas (just to name a few). In Year 6 we want to challenge their thinking and expand their horizons whilst teaching in a fun and informative way. We have a Christmas sleepover at the school and a residential to the Isle of Wight.  They will partake in many amazing activities and it is an amazing opportunity for them to have experiences and create lasting bonds with their peers. We look forward to having a great year!

Parents, here is a useful file to show you the glossary of English terms your child will expect to see in Year 6.

Here is a sample SATs paper. It has been annotated to show you how each question should be broken down. I hope this is useful! :)
