The children enjoyed using Podcasts, Drama, Online Presentations and creating Posters to show what they have retained!

What an amazing day Year 6 have had! This morning they all took on the roles of the different members of staff at St Anne's, firstly leading and presenting certificates in Celebration Assembly and then teaching and supporting the children in the different Year Groups. We also had children taking on the roles of Caretakers, Catering staff, Headteacher and Deputy Headteacher. You all did an amazing job! We then finished our day with different parents coming in to speak to us about their different job roles, which the children loved and thoroughly enjoyed having the opportunity to ask questions about the different professions! Thank you to all of the parents who gave up their time to do this!

We have had an extremely busy start to Autumn 2 this week! Firstly, on Monday, Year 6 enjoyed a session in the Wonder Dome, where they recapped their Space learning from Year 5 and were able to ask different questions about Space, then on Tuesday we were very excited to participate in an African Drumming session. On Wednesday, some Year 6 children then attended our Staff Meeting about reading fluency, which they were then able to put into practise on Thursday during their paired reading time with Year 4. On Friday, we then had some time gardening, tidying the grounds and our planters in the Peace Garden! What a fun-filled, busy week!
