Year 6
is a very important time in a child’s school life both in terms of
transition into high school and academic attainment. We aim to
ensure that each child is fully prepared emotionally, socially and
academically for life in their chosen secondary school.
We aim
for each child to reach his or her full potential in all aspects of
the curriculum, therefore enabling them to become independent, hard
working, responsible and social young adults.
We aim
to prepare each child for their transition into high school through
independent research, extra roles and responsibilities.
Academically work will become more challenging as we encourage each
child to have high aspirations for their future life. Children will
be asked to do independent research both at school and home to
support their learning, prepare them for high school, create
interest in their work as well as raising the achievement of all
pupils.
Year 6
monitors
Our
monitors are responsible for assembly organisation, lunch box
arrangements and daily routines in school. In addition to this they
are superb helpers on Open Evenings.
Head Boy
and Girl
Each
year a Head Boy and Head Girl are chosen from Year 6 pupils. Year 6
are invited to apply for this position and to assist with the
selection process. Children in other year groups are also invited
to vote for their choice of Head Boy and Head Girl.
Play
Leaders
Year 6
pupils apply for the opportunity to teach and play alongside other
pupils in school. The Play Leaders are proving to be a fantastic
asset to lunchtime play and helping create an amazing atmosphere on
the playground.
Eco
Warriors
Year 6
also have their own Eco-Warriors with the responsibility to assist
in the schools Eco Friendly practices such as recycling paper.
School
Council
Each
Year 6 class also has 2 School Council representatives who liaise
between Year 6 pupils and the school council on important matters
effecting the running of the school. It is an important tool in
giving children a voice on the running of their school.
We are
really looking forward to this being an amazing year.
