Welcome, to what is going to be a fantastic year for P6a!

Today the children settled into class well as they were learning all about being in the upper school and the expectations that that brings.

PE day will be a Tuesday and one other still to be confirmed.

Children are welcome to leave their PE kit and their locker and it will be sent home if muddy, sweaty or wet and at at each half term.

Could children also bring in old/ waterproof clothing for outdoor learning tasks. This can also be kept in their locker.

There is no homework assigned for this week to allow children to settle back into a routine after the holidays, however homework will be assigned via this blog so please check regularly for updates.

Today the pupils worked as groups investigating and discussing the UN charter for the rights of the child.  They identified 3 rights that each group felt were important. They collated the results and used their democratic right to vote to select the 3 rights that they wish to focus on this term. They selected Articles 15, 26 and 33 focusing on their rights to join organisations and have free speech, the right to receive financial aid from the government and the right to be protected from drugs.  Children also discussed their right to be safe, healthy and heard and from here formulated their class rules. Together these form the class charter of P6a which has been agreed to by each child.
