Year 6 – Welcome to Term 6!

Residential:

This term a whopping 52 of our students are venturing to the residential together with four of our fabulous staff to finish off our year, they have had many meetings to prepare. Make sure to watch our blog over the next few weeks to see how the trip went.

What about those who are not going?

Please can the children wear their school uniform on Friday 9^th and P.E. Kit on Monday 12^th.

For those who are lucky enough to be in school with Mr. Fagan, we have a lot of mysterious (and perhaps messy) activities to work on, a sneak peek is listed below:

On Friday 9^th June, there will be two planned activities:

• Rock steady music concert across the whole school for our assembly, showcasing different musical instruments.
• The rest of our day will be spent involved in a drama workshop led by an outside agency to help with preparations for our end of year play.

On Monday 12^th June, there will be a range of outdoor and adventurous activities for the children to take part in, which will develop their teamwork and cooperation skills. Some examples are:

• Cooking over a firepit
• Building shelters using natural materials outdoors (children may get drenched during this task)
• Themed orienteering tasks including reading a map and compass.
• Cooking in the kitchen.

Children should bring:

• May want to bring extra snacks (we will have extra food in our fire pit cooking)
• Sunhat/ Sun cream
• Packed lunch in the hopes of a picnic lunch
