Year 6 Class Page

Welcome to Year 6

This is a very exciting and very important year as it is your child’s last year at St Andrew’s before they move onto secondary school.

We will have lots of fun learning activities that are linked to our topic work. We will also focus on getting your child ready for SATs in May.

We welcome you with big smiles for the exciting year that will commence. This is a very important year with lots of great learning opportunities and fun activities for the children to get involved with. You can find out more about what Year 6 are learning when you receive our termly newsletters. These will be packed full of information.

We are passionate about sharing our learning and you will see regular updates on this Year 6 web page.

The staff are friendly so if you have any questions please speak to the class teachers at the end of the day. They will be more than happy to offer support and help where needed.

The Year 6 staff team is made up of class teachers: Miss Philp, Mrs Dixon and Mr Cooper.

We are also incredibly lucky to have additional support in class from Mrs Grindley, Mrs Paige and Miss Dell.

If you have any questions, please speak to the class teachers at the end of the day.
