News Year 6

Yesterday, we were all saddened to hear of the passing of HRH Queen Elizabeth II.

The year 6 children ended their final year at Primary school with an exciting 2 days. 

It has been such an eventful week at Cypress! Monday and Tuesday saw the hottest temperatures ever recorded in the UK, and the sweatiest school days we’ve ever witnessed!

This year a number of pupils from Brigstock attended a gardening club at Lion Road Allotments. 

Today we said good bye to our Year 6 children.  It was lovely looking back through the years during the Leavers Assembly and remembering some of the experiences that the children had whilst at Brigstock. 

With another year coming to an end, we thought it was worth looking back at a fantastic season of sporting success.

For their Blue Bead treat Year 6 decided to enjoy a water fight. 

EPS netball team finished the netball season on a high with three amazing matches last week.

Year 6 brought the house down on Thursday evening with their fantastic performance of ‘Mystery at Magpie Manor’.

This week, Year 6 at Whitehorse Manor performed their end of term production, ‘Aladdin Trouble,’ to children across the school and to their parents. 

We were pleased to be visited today by Steve Reed, Shadow Secretary of State for Justice and MP for Croydon North, so that he could meet with our School Council to discuss local matters and tell them a little bit more about his work as our local MP. 

We have been thinking carefully about mistakes – and how we can use them as an opportunity to learn.

Last week, Year 6 at Ecclesbourne celebrated the end of SATs and a successful year with a trip to Chessington World of Adventures.

This week we have been thinking about how to show understanding – being aware of other people’s feelings, being tolerant and forgiving.

It was a pleasure accompanying Year 6 on the annual visit to Chessington World of Adventures on Wednesday 6th July.
