Welcome to Year 6!

It's SUMMER TERM already, I cannot believe we are in our final term together, and your final term at primary school. We have a very busy and challenging term ahead of us, but one that we will will excel in!

Year 6 is the last of your primary school journey, it's full of: fun, laughter and hard work - but we will get through this together!

If your child is a member of our class, please familiarise yourself with this page as we will post updates and showcase all the fantastic work the children have been creating.

Please check out Class Dojos for weekly updates of all the exciting learning we get up to!

For any queries or questions, please don't hesitate to speak to me at the end of the school day.

This half-term we are... GEOGRAPHERS

We are exploring Global Challenges and climate change, we will gain an understanding of how climate zones effect how land is used and start to gain an understanding that if climate change occurs, there are serious consequences.

We will learn about climate change—gaining an understanding of the greenhouse effect and how this causes global warming. We will also research the effects of climate change and what individuals are doing to try and make a change. The unit takes the children on a journey as global citizens, outlining the way we use our planet, the challenges and potential consequences we face, and ultimately the responsibility we have.

Our geographical learning journey:

How does the climate of a place influence how its land it used?
What is climate change?
What causes global warming?
What are the effects of climate change?
How does climate change affect land use?

HOW CAN WE MAKE A DIFFERENCE?

We will continue to prepare
for these end of Key Stage 2
tests throughout the day and
in morning and after school
boosters thank you so much
for attending all these
sessions so far this year!
