British Values
St George's Day, celebrated annually on April 23rd, commemorates the death of St George, the patron saint of England. It is a day to celebrate English national identity, and while not a national holiday, many people observe it with feasts, fellowship, and displays of the St George's Cross flag. The children in 6GH had a feast at lunch and then did some research into the life of St George.
Maths
Plotting coordinates in all four quadrants.
Quadrant one (QI) is the top right fourth of the coordinate plane, where there are only positive coordinates. Quadrant two (QII) is the top left fourth of the coordinate plane. Quadrant three (QIII) is the bottom left fourth.
The children worked on plotting coordinates in all four quadrants.
SATs week
6GH, SATs don't hear your laughter, or see you've come this far, SATs are just a tiny glimpse of who you really are. So sitting at your table, with a pencil and your test, Remember SATs aren't who you are, remember you're the best.
The children received a Good Luck cupcake before SATs week started. The children are well prepared for the assessments and ready to complete them.
Bradford City Fire
The Bradford City stadium fire occurred during a Football League Third Division match on Saturday 11 May 1985 at the Valley Parade stadium in Bradford, West Yorkshire, England, killing 56 spectators and injuring at least 265.
To remember the 40th Anniversary of this tragic event, the children wore claret and amber and raised money from Bradford's Burns Unit.
VE Day Celebrations
On Thursday 8th May 2025 we remembered and celebrated the 80th anniversary of VE day. VE Day - which stands for Victory in Europe Day - was the day near the end of World War Two when fighting against Nazi Germany in Europe stopped. World War Two had begun in 1939. By 1945 it was clear Germany was going to lose the war.
The children looked at how the day was celebrated in 1945 and wrote their own diaries of these celebrations.
Leaver's Hoodies
The end of SATs was celebrated with extra play times and even a football tournament between 6GH and 6N. The children received their Leaver's Hoodies from our generous PTFA. Year 6 can now wear these instead of their usual school jumper.
Emotional Educational Wellbeing Team
The Emotional Educational Wellbeing Team (EEWT) came to 6GH to discuss transition. The team spoke about the different emotions which children may feel during this time and how to cope to with these feelings.
