Class 6
Welcome to Class 6
Teachers: Mrs. T. Burton and Mrs G. Watson
Teaching Assistant: Miss J. Scott
September 2025
Hello to all our pupils and their families in Year 6!
We hope you have all had a relaxing, sunny break from school and are ready for your final year of primary school. We are really looking forward to welcoming you back.
This year is a brilliant year to be in; starting with Bikeability in September, our trip to Salus, Safety in Action in Term 4, we go on our residential to Windmill Hill in East Sussex in May, before we put on our production in July.
However, it is a year of challenge and commitment, beginning with choosing our Head Girl and Head Boy in the first few weeks we are back. We want you to get the most out of every moment as it will fly by and then you will be off to your secondary schools before you know it!
But until then, Wednesday will be the start of a packed year and we can't wait to share it with you all.
Best wishes,
Mrs B, Mrs Watson and Miss Scott
