A Big Well Done to Year 6! 😊

A Job Well Done - Invista

This week, the children in Year 6 have done lots of PSHE work, finishing with a fantastic Crucial Crew session today. We wanted to say a massive ‘Well Done!’ to all of the children for the wonderfully mature, sensible and responsible attitude that they have displayed during all of the sessions this week. You all make us very proud! 😊

Year 6 History Projects! 😊

As part of our Ancient Egyptian topic, the children in Year 6 created projects about different elements of Ancient Egypt for homework. This week, they have presented their projects and we have been blown away by the incredibly high standard of their work!

Well done, Year 6! You are amazing! 🌟🌟🌟

         

                   

Collective Worship

Mrs Sixsmith was preparing for collective worship in the hall today with the Year 1 bubble. We are all very happy to be able to gather together, in our bubbles, once again. Hopefully, this is the beginning of assemblies returning to how they used to be!

Sacred Spaces

Year 4 have been designing and making sacred places in their RE lesson. They are designing rooms for different religions to share for worship.
