Year 6 have had another busy and exciting week filled with creativity, reflection and plenty of achievements! In maths, the children have been exploring the properties of 3D shapes, designing and building their own using nets, as well as investigating which 2D shapes tessellate to create some fantastic patterns and artwork—there were some truly impressive designs on display. They have also completed their final maths tests, showing how much progress they have made this year. In language, pupils have been thoughtfully reflecting on their Year 6 journey by writing their own self-reports to accompany teacher reports, considering their strengths, improvements, future goals for high school, and their favourite memories—so many wonderful moments to choose from! Alongside this, they have been learning about collective nouns (with the class favourite being “a chatter of children!”) and creating timelines and biographies about inspiring individuals who have made a mark on the world—perhaps inspiring future biographies of their own lives! In whole class reading, we have been learning about Albert Einstein and the importance of curiosity and asking big questions, while in Welsh the children have been revising vocabulary and confidently practising questions and answers, impressing Mrs Bayley with their knowledge. We have also begun rehearsing songs for the leavers’ concert and are working hard in our inquiry teams to create tourist information scripts and films, showcasing the wonders of Wales—we’re hoping to persuade you all to visit! Finally, despite the soggy, unseasonably wet weather, we ended the week with a cheerful Summer Fayre—thank you so much to everyone who donated, supported and helped out. Have a wonderful weekend and fingers crossed for some sunshine!
