Welcome to Year 6 / Badger Class! 

Class Teacher - Miss Beckett

Teaching Assistant - Mrs Forbes 

Welcome back to Term 6! 

Hope you all had a lovely May half term and enjoyed the break. We would just like to say a massive well done for your hard word during SAT's week. You all had positive attitudes and approached the tests in a mature manner we are all very proud.

I can't believe we are in our final term of the year. This is a jampacked term. We will soon begin preparations for our production Bugsy Malone. Every Friday afternoon we will be going swimming, look out on parent pay for extra information on that. The most talked about trip of the year PGL will soon come up, again there will be an information evening all about this. In addition we have: beach day, sports day, Bell boat challenge, Police activity day, prom and transition preparations for your secondary schools. I have a feeling this term will fly by. 

Again thank you for your continued support and if you ever need anything find us on the playground or go to the office.
