Year 6

In PE today we begun our new topic of cricket, in preparation for the kwik cricket festival in March. We worked on many skills during our lesson today: decision making as a batter when making runs, throwing the ball accurately to our team mate when fielding and being ready and prepared to catch the ball when working as a wicket keeper. We all reflected on the skills we were focusing on today and decided which ones were our strengths and which ones we needed to focus on during the next few sessions

Our RE enquiry this term is all about exploring the idea of eternity and what this means for Christians. To start our investigation, we discussed what we thought enternity meant and whether we believed that things could last forever. We worked in groups to sort a range of ideas, objects, people and places into categories and discussed whether they would be everlasting. We enjoying challenging our thinking and being philosophers!

Yesterday’s PE lesson was the start of our new spring unit which is cricket. The children were extremely excited to start this unit and I can see we have some keen cricketers in 6G. We played an activity where the children had to make quick decisions which are vital when playing cricket.

Year 6 really enjoyed their party this afternoon. We played games, dances and had our sweets from the PTA – thank you to all the PTA for organising.

We’ve really enjoyed playing our interactive Christmas quiz and battling against each other.

We throughly enjoyed being creatively fit for life by exploring using acrylic paints and techniques to create some beautiful winter scenes in art.

We used acrylic paint to create a starry night scene.

Today we used acrylic paint to make some wonderful Christmas cards which will be coming home to our wonderful families soon! We won’t show you the finished products now, but we know you will love them as they look fabulous!
