Class update from Friday 20th March 2026:

Although the end of the spring term is in sight, Year 6 have not had time to rest on their laurels but, instead, have stepped up a gear. This has been particularly evident through their writing, where they have employed many methods to build an informative recount, evaluating the impact journalistic techniques have had on their writing.

Such analytical thinking has also found its way into recent science lessons, with the class investigating the different components within a circuit that may affect the brightness of a bulb. This will be taken further next week, encouraging initiated lines of enquiry based upon wire thickness and length, and with comparative and fair testing coming in to play.

The children have been particularly excited to start their new design technology project: Mechanical systems - Automata toys. Throughout this unit, they will be developing functional automata toys for a window display, using cams, followers and axles to create movement. After creating design criteria to meet a user’s needs, the children set about measuring card and wood accurately before cutting components, using appropriate tools.
