Y6 are making international connections
We had a visit from 12 boys from The Mayo College in Rajasthan, India. Although we found a shared loved of school holidays and pasta, we also found some major differences between our lives. All the y6s are jealous they don't go to boarding school for extended school hours - honest!!

Y6: The Red Tree
We're using this book as a stimulus for our writing. This week, we have been working on the themes of the book, as well as the illustrations and the limited use of text that the author - Shaun Tan - selects. Today we're researching news stories that reflect the theme of our pages to add to our illustrations.

Y6: World of Work...
Today, we've been lucky enough to be joined by some volunteers (Helen, Wendy, Jayne and Gill) from Leeds City Council, who've come in to work with us on the theme of aspiration - what could we be when we're older?
We've been doing a lot of discussion and creative activities to investigate how we can plan for our future...starting now!
