Water Battle

Dear Parents/Guardians,

As it appears that the weather will be very good next week, we are hoping that we can have our Year 6 water battle at the end of Friday 26th June. We will do this at the very end of the day, as children will get very wet! Children who have after-school clubs will want to bring a change of clothes.

Children are allowed to bring in their own water blasters. We also have some water blasters should the children not have any at home.

If the weather changes, we will update you on the re-scheduled event.

Crucial Crew/ Art Day Clarification

Good morning,

We are aware that the whole-school art day is scheduled for the same day as Crucial Crew (Wednesday 24th June). Year 6 have had their art day moved but will not require dress-down and will be later this term. Please ensure that your child is wearing school uniform for our trip to Crucial Crew next Wednesday, as there are many schools in attendance and children have to be easily identifiable. Please also ensure that they have a packed lunch including a drink, sun cream and a hat should they need it.

Thank you,
Year 6 Team

Smart cup treat – board game afternoon

As part of their smart cup treat from last term, Year 6 are having a board game afternoon tomorrow (Tuesday 16th June 2026). Whilst they are able to use the board games we have in school, they are very welcome to bring in those which they may have at home. The children have been reminded that they should be willing to share these games with their classmates and that they are responsible for ensuring they don’t lose any pieces!

We are looking forward to an afternoon of friendly competition!

Bikeability Year 6

Dear Parents/ Guardians,

Next week, Monday 15th – Thursday 18th June, Mrs Arthurs’ class will have Bikeability.

Children will not need to bring their own bikes or helmets as road-worthy bicycles are provided from Telford and Wrekin. The children do not need to be confident cyclists as this will be developed over the week. The sessions are one hour long and will run throughout the school day on Monday. From the second day, children who are able to ride a bike, will be allowed to complete level 2 – riding on roads. There will be trained instructors monitoring the children and their safety and pupils will learn about road safety, signalling and how to ride confidently outside. The children do not need to wear PE kit (apart from Tuesday) which is our usual PE day.

Mrs Stack’s class will complete this in two weeks.

Kind regards,
The Year 6 Team

Discovering Darwin

Today in year 6, we enjoyed a workshop about Charles Darwin. We learned about his early childhood and how he was fascinated with nature and science from a young age, later travelling around the world on HMS Beagle as a naturalist researching animals. Examining various objects: rocks, shells, beetles, fossils and insects, we discussed how we could classify them based on their characteristics. Becoming Darwinians, we observed the characteristics of different animals, drawing them with ink and a quill; we considered how they had adapted and evolved to survive in their environment . Finally, we created our own creature from a combination of different animals, labelling the features that would help it to survive.

Year 6 – Ancient Greece Workshop

Today, Year 6 enjoyed our workshop about Ancient Greece. We examined artefacts and learned how they were used; we even pretended to be archaeologists, uncovering broken artefacts and piecing them together to identify the original items and their purpose. Taking on the identity of Ancient Greeks, we emulated the Spartan and Athenian societies before choosing which city state we preferred to live in. Finally, we learned about the Olympics and identified how mystery items were used in different sports.
