Year 6

Welcome to Year 6!

2021-2022

We are so excited for the coming year.

The class teachers in year 6 will be Mrs Barker and Mrs Russell. Mrs Devitt will be supporting groups in the mornings.

The TA’s working with you, will be Mrs Weston and Mr Nta.

It will a time of preparation in many different ways. Hopefully, there will be little disruption and we can get on and enjoy the year together.

We prepare for the Sacrament of Confirmation. This is a very special time because we work together to gather a deeper understanding of our faith. It is the time in our lives when we stand up to say 'Yes' to God's invitation to love and serve him. We consider, discuss and find out what it really means to be a follower of Christ in our world today.

Throughout the year, we prepare for Secondary school. We know that we need to learn more about being independent and how to look after our world. To prepare for this we have lots of jobs and responsibilities around school and we know we have to set a good example to the younger pupils through our work and excellent behaviour.

What an amazing prayer!!

A prayer for climate change

O Lord creator of Heaven and Earth. We thank you for this rich gift. We know the Earth is crying and you are crying with us. We also know that your beautiful creation cannot be renewed without the renewal of humanity itself.

I ask Lord that you open the hearts and minds of your people to take action on climate change. Guide us Lord to seek ways of living less wastefully and more frugally, manifesting less greed and more generosity for the protection of your creation and the benefits of your people.

You are the light of the world, grant that the same light enkindled in our hearts may shine forth in all we do.

Through Jesus Christ Our Lord.

Amen

Hot seating in English

Year 6 are reading War Horse.

They looked at how a character was feeling and tried to empathise.

The characters in the hot seat responded to the questions in detail and in role. They showed a depth of understanding of the character they portrayed.

Prayer Partners

Year 6 teamed up with St Thomas Aquinas year 7 children to look at and explore the gifts of the Holy Spirit.

They worked brilliantly together.
