Welcome to Year 6

Cheetahs have a a settled start to the new academic year. We have had fun getting to know each other as well as becoming familiar with our new rules and routines. With being the eldest children in the school comes lots of responsibility, we are looking forward to our Vice and House Captain speech house assemblies as well as our Pupil Voice Group elections.

Our Class Novel

We have started our new class novel in our English groups. We have chosen The Explorer by Katherine Rundel. The novel is about a group of children who become lost in the Amazon Jungle, we are intrigued to find out if they survive on their travels!

Pupil Voice Groups

As we do every year, children in Cheetahs Class have worked hard preparing speeches for the class about why they should be elected for a role. We have carefully selected the following children to represent our class in the pupil voice groups:

European Languages Day

To celebrate European Languages Day, our French Ambassadors lead an activity. We had to have a go at reading 'Good Afternoon' in many languags from accross Europe - some of these were very tricky! Thank you to Miss Barrett and Mrs Gerry for helping us to celebrate this special day.
