Welcome to Year 6!
We are so excited for the coming year.
The staff in Year 6 will be Mrs Baston, Mrs Russell, Mrs Weston and Mrs Devitt will be supporting groups in the mornings.
It will a time of preparation in many different ways.
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.
Our class saint is St. John Henry Newman whose feast day is on October 9th. On this day, we have a prayer liturgy to reflect on his life and his faith.
We made bread rolls in our Design and Technology lesson. We designed the rolls for a children’s tea party and worked in groups to mix, knead and shape the dough. We baked the rolls and were very pleased with how they turned out. We evaluated the rolls before eating them with jam and butter.
Today we prayed for people who are poorly to mark the World day of prayer for the sick on 11th February. We put prayer pebbles in water to represent how God's love surrounds those who are in need.
