Welcome to Year 6 and Team Topaz!
Your Classteacher is Mrs Boulder.
Your teaching assistants are Mrs Sides, Ms Routledge and Mr Steedon.
It has been a fun and energetic week in Team Topaz as we have been really enjoying sports week! We started off with a soggy but very enjoyable sports day. We did lots of different activities and earned points for our house teams. On Wednesday, we tried archery and found that we have some sharp shooters in our class! On Thursday, we played quidditch (without the flying broomsticks) and tricked and tumbled our way around the school hall. We ended our very sporty week with boxing and learnt lots of new skills. We have also been inventing sea creatures for our 'Oceonology' inspired diary and have learnt how to use column addition and subtraction to calculate with time. We have also learnt about how our diet can affect our bodies.
Next week, we will be rehearsing and filming our play, 'The Next Big Step' as the film company will be visiting school on Tuesday. We will be revising 2D and 3D shape in Maths and in English, writing our next instalment of our deep sea adventure diary.
Well done for a super week, have a lovely weekend and see you on Monday!
Congratulations to this Week's Stars and Top Ten Rockers!
