Supporting Children in Need and England! - November 2022

We had a fantastic time celebrating children in need last week; we ran our socks off for our challenge of running from Solihull to Qatar (3328 miles). We raised lots of awareness for the charity and will raise lots of money too  It was a great day!

We also watched the first England match of the World Cup; we all got into it and saw a fantastic 6-2 win! We look forward to the rest of an amazing tournament!

Year 6 Social Media Takeover Day - November 2022

In maths, we have been working hard on our fractions; we have been finding equivalent fractions and simplifying, along with placing equivalent fractions on a number line. 

Within English today, we have been working on up-levelling our sentences; we have done this through adding rich vocabulary and a variety of punctuation to our work, where we have created fantastic, descriptive biographies about our peers. 

Within Guided Reading, our groups have been working hard on their figurative language skills; they have been finding examples of key vocabulary and also using descriptive vocabulary and punctuation in written tasks. 

In Science, we have finished off our topic of the Heart and Lungs with a really fun and active lesson; we’ve completed a variety of exercises, showing how our heart rate rises as we exercise more and then how it decreases again as we rest.

Year 6 Bowling Champions! - October 2022

A group of our amazing Year 6 children were invited to take part in a ten pin bowling event at Acocks Green Bowling lanes.

We entered two teams of four into the competition and we were phenomenal!

One of our teams came in 1st place and the other in 3rd! Incredible! It really was a great event and our children represented all of our school with such pride and determination! What a team! 

Llanrug Trip - September 2022

We had a fantastic trip in Llanrug this year; it really was a week where memories were made and will last a lifetime!

It was a week full of new experiences for us all, where we got to be adventurous on land and in the water.

We rode in canoes, completed zip wires, rock climbed, went mining, walked a lot, swam in the sea, went rafting, threw ourselves into the sea from rocks and many many more activities, which I'm sure the children have told you about.

It was a really special trip and the children were amazing! 

Year 6 Cricket Festival Finals Day at Edgbaston - September 2022

Our team of superstars, who won our local cricket festival when they were in Year 5, were invited to the 'champion of champions' event at Edgbaston Cricket Stadium.

It was a fantastic opportunity for our group and they produced some fine cricket throughout the day! 

We played five games in total; winning 3 and narrowly losing 2. Amazing! 

It really was a great day and the children were a real credit to the school!
