Castle Hills Primary Academy

Mr Newsham (Y6)

 

 

We would like to welcome you all back to school after another busy academic year. We hope that you have had a peaceful, restful and enjoyable summer, and feel refreshed for new challenges ahead.

Over the coming term, 6N will be focusing on the Ancient Greeks and their legacy as well as geographical concepts including the changing world and sustainability. 

 

                                                                                                      

 

Our class novel is ‘The Final Year which is written by Matt Goodfellow. After predicting what happens we will delve deep into the book and its meaning. A story about 10-year-old Nate as he navigates a challenging last year of primary school and how he copes.

 

 

In maths, children will focus on place value and the main calculation methods needed in upper key stage 2. They will solve problems involved in everyday life including money, weight, capacity and volume. In science, children will focus on how and why we classify different groups of animals.

It will be a very busy but equally enjoyable term for the children, and I am sure that they will rise to the challenges set before them.

 

 
   

Remember, to make sure you complete your homework on time, read at least five times every week, arrive in the correct PE kit *remember to remove earrings* and have an attendance of 96% or above to be in our ‘In It To Win It’!
