News Year 6

After a long drive and some coach delays, our Year 6 adventurers have settled into camp, unrolled their sleeping bags and got stuck in to woodland life!

It was a long drive there, but they’ve made it. Year 6 arrived at Boughton Wood around 2:00pm.

Year 3 and 4 (Ruby, Gus, Lucy and James) took part in a mini tennis competition at South Croydon Sports Centre, competing against 7 schools in Croydon.

We had an amazing time this afternoon. We were thoroughly entertained by our talented children.

This week has been a testing week for our Year 6s.

Whilst studying the book ‘Wolf Brother’ the year 6 children wrote a letter from the book’s main character to his father in the afterlife. 

What a way to end the week- a celebration for the Queen’s Platinum Jubilee!

The children had fun today celebrating the up coming Queen’s Jubilee.

We’ve had a lovely day in the sun at Cypress and it’s been great to see everyone enjoying our wonderful school grounds. 

Thank you to all the parents, carers and children who joined us for the last meeting about this month’s residential trip for Year 6.

As part of their Literacy work around the text ‘Wolf Brother’ by Michelle Paver, Year 6 were visited by two cave people, Twig and Ochre, who camped on the field at Whitehorse Manor Junior School for 3 nights. 

Your child should already have brought home a kit list which outlines all the equipment they need for the upcoming residential woodland bushcraft trip this May. 

As part of our literacy unit on Shakespeare’s Macbeth, we have been delving into the killer mind of Lady Macbeth.
