Welcome to Year 6 and Eagles Class 

Year 6 is  taught by Mr Wootton and Mrs Thwaites with Mrs McDermott, Mrs Ferguson, Mrs Davies and Mrs Evans being the Teaching Partners. 

This is a very important year for the children as we prepare them for the expectations of secondary school. At the end of the year they will take their statutory assessments in reading, writing, maths and spelling, punctuation and grammar. Further information about this will be shared with parents throughout the year including advice on how you can support your children with this at home.

Through our close links with the local secondary schools, we aim for every child to be familiar with the surroundings of the school of their choice, to have the self-belief and courage they need to succeed and ready for the challenges of Secondary school.

In the summer term there is a residential that is part of that all important transition from being a primary school child to one ready for secondary school.

Weekly Musts for Eagles:
