Class assembly
We look forward to inviting you to our class assembly, which is planned for 6 December. We will share more information soon.
Class Novel
Our class novel for this half term will be I am Rebel by Ross Montgomery. The book has been shortlisted for Waterstones Book of the Year.
Rebel is a good dog, and he loves his simple, perfect life on the farm with his owner Tom – until one day the war comes too close… Now Tom is determined to join the rebellion to defeat the king’s men. But Rebel knows war is dangerous, and he will stop at nothing to save the human he loves. Rebel must bring Tom home before it’s too late.
Voices for Equality (Year 6)
At the start of the Summer term, Year 6 (2024) took part in a programme called Voices for Equality. Over two days, the children learnt about the inspiring life and work of Anne Frank through readings and video extracts from her diary.
The children also explored contemporary and historical forms of prejudice and discrimination. They reflected on the dangers if these views are left unchallenged.
The children have now planned an assembly and workshops to share their learning with the rest of the school.
Following the programme, we are very pleased to share that we now have a Year 6 student as an Anne Frank Ambassador. The role of an Anne Frank Ambassador is to work towards a world free from prejudice, inspired by the life and work of Anne Frank.
