A Kingdom United

As part of our Design and Technology project, we have been working towards creating our own main course for a high tea menu. To help us develop our ideas, we explored the five basic tastes: sweet, sour, salty, bitter and umami. We enjoyed taste-testing a range of foods and discussing how different flavours work together to create balanced and enjoyable dishes.

We also researched traditional foods that could be included in a high tea, considering presentation, nutrition and flavour. As part of our wider curriculum offer, we went foraging for blackberries, learning about seasonal produce and how ingredients can be sourced from the local environment. This experience helped us to understand where food comes from and inspired some of our menu ideas

Library Visits Continue

Throughout the year, Year 6 pupils will enjoy regular visits to Clayton Brook Library. These visits provide a wonderful opportunity for children to explore a wide range of books, develop their love of reading and discover new authors and genres.

Children will be encouraged to choose books that interest them and challenge their reading skills, helping them to become confident, independent readers. Regular library visits also support our reading curriculum by promoting reading for pleasure and fostering a lifelong appreciation of books.

We look forward to working with Clayton Brook Library to inspire our pupils and help them develop a genuine enthusiasm for reading.

Running Wild by Michael Morpurgo

This autumn, Year 6 pupils will be exploring the exciting journey of Will and Oona through their class reading. We encourage parents to support their child's reading at home by listening to them read regularly, discussing what they have read, and asking questions about the story. Children should continue to read their guided reading books every day, as regular reading helps to develop fluency, comprehension and a lifelong love of books. We look forward to sharing this reading journey with you.

DebtAware

During their time in Year 6, the children will continue working with the team from Debt Aware to improve their understanding of financing and budgeting. Research shows that many of the habits relating to our ability to manage money are formed at an early age so we feel that it is vital for this learning to take place now. These are vital skills that the children will carry with them into the adult life. For more information, please find their website below:
