We truly believe learning is a journey - an adventure - which should provide challenge, encourage creativity, inspire curiosity, and most of all, be enjoyable. We aim to inspire a love of learning and high aspirations for all, and provide pupils with the skills and knowledge to help them to fulfil their goals and realise their dreams.

We are currently working on Cycle B for all subjects, except Science which we are on Cycle D.

We’re excited to share the latest updates from our classroom! This term, we’ve embarked on an engaging journey with our new class book, “Windrush Child” by Benjamin Zephaniah. Up to Chapter 5, we’ve been diving into Leonard’s life in Jamaica and have started writing heartfelt letters to his dad, which has sparked some wonderful conversations about family and heritage.

In Maths, we're exploring additive and multiplicative structures, and our Cuisenaire rods are coming in handy as we represent our calculations and draw bar charts. It’s been a hands-on way to understand these concepts!

In Science, we’ve moved on to the fascinating topic of sound. We've even recorded a slow-motion video showing sound waves travelling through the field! We hope to upload this soon, pending permissions from everyone involved.

Also, during Anti-Bullying Week, we focused on the theme of respect. The children engaged in discussions about what respect looks, sounds, and feels like—their insights were truly inspiring.

Finally, Year 6 had a fantastic Cathedral Day filled with activities like stonemasonry, drama, and a prayer carousel, concluding with a lovely collective worship.
